Miss Europe

It was established in February 1927 by Fanamet [de], the European distributor of Paramount, as a one-off event where the winner was to star in a film directed by Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau.

[citation needed] After the initial twelve-person jury couldn't decide between 10 contestants, a runoff election was held where Murnau chose the winner.

The contest was interrupted by the onset of World War II but was later re-established, after de Waleffe died, by Roger Zeiler and Claude Berr who founded the Mondial Events Organization (MEO).

In modern times women are philanthropists, entrepreneurs and social activists, mothers, sisters and daughters which every day must deal with the responsibilities of being the Mrs. Europe we are looking for.

Miss Europe Continental is an international beauty contest born with the aim to enhance the feminine charm and the cultures of the different countries participating in the competition.
