On a day when the French socialist party turned the clock back in electing a "hard left" leader, it was pleasing to see that one young French woman has captured a title last won in 1953.
Iris Mittenaere, a 24 year old dental student from Lille was chosen as Miss Universe.
The competition was held in Manila, Philippines, and Iris was chosen from 86 contestants.
The "miss" elections seem to have died out in the UK, but regularly make the headlines here in France.
