The Miss France election is fast approaching. The Miss France company unveiled a few days ago the official portraits of the 30 regional candidates who will try to win the crown and thus succeed Ève Gilles on December 14 at the Futuroscope in Poitiers (Vienna).
Currently in preparation for the famous competition in Ivory Coast, the Misses have continued visits in contact with the population, in the bush or by the ocean, master classes with former Miss France, exercises for teaching them to parade, the general knowledge test or even photo shoots.
Last Friday, November 15, two days before flying to Ivory Coast, they had already devoted themselves to the exercise of the photo session to take their official portrait for this election which will have the theme “The big Miss ball.” Le Parisien invites you to discover these 30 photos.
