Rachel Legrain-Trapani (born 31 August 1988) is French beauty pageant titleholder who was chosen as Miss France in 2007. [1] Living in Saint-Quentin, she was chosen first as Miss Aisne and later as representative of the region of Picardy. She succeeded Alexandra Rosenfeld as the 53rd Miss France on 9 December 2006.
Miss France is a national beauty pageant in France held each year in December, and the winner is designated by the year that begins in the ensuing January. The trademark is owned by the company Miss France SAS,. Local and regional pageants that provide entrants for the Miss France contest are organized by the Comité Miss France, whose emblematic president was Geneviève de Fontenay during 20 years.
Picardy is a historical territory and a former administrative region of France. Since 1 January 2016, it has been part of the new region of Hauts-de-France. It is located in the northern part of France.
Alexandra Rosenfeld was elected Miss France in 2006. Representing the region of Languedoc, she succeeded Cindy Fabre as the 77th Miss France on 3 December 2005.
After winning the Miss France title, Legrain-Trapani planned to allow her first runner-up, Sophie Vouzelaud, who was the first deaf or hard of hearing finalist for Miss France, to compete in Miss World 2007, but the Miss World Organization refused to accept any contestant but the national winner.
Sophie Vouzelaud was elected first runner-up in the 2007 Miss France pageant. She represented the region of Limousin.
Miss World is the oldest running international beauty pageant. It was created in the United Kingdom by Eric Morley in 1951. Since his death in 2000, Morley's widow, Julia Morley, has co-chaired the pageant. Along with Miss Universe, Miss International and Miss Earth, this pageant is one of the Big Four international beauty pageants—the most coveted beauty titles when it comes to international pageant competitions.
Miss World 2007, the 57th edition of the Miss World pageant, was held on 1 December 2007 at the Crown of Beauty Theatre in Sanya, China. It was hosted by Fernando Allende and Angela Chow. Zhang Zilin of China won the crown and succeeded Taťána Kuchařová of the Czech Republic.
