France at major beauty pageants
This is a list of France's official representatives and their placements at the Big Four international beauty pageants, considered the most important in the world. The country has won four victories:
- Two — Miss Universe crowns (1953 • 2016)
- One — Miss World crown (1953)
- One — Miss International crown (1976)
The criteria for the Big Four inclusion are based on specific standards such as the pageant's global prominence and prestige approved by worldwide media; the quality and quantity of crowned delegates recognized by international franchisees and pageant aficionados; the winner's post pageant activities; the pageant's longevity, consistency, and history; the sincerity of the pageant's specific cause, platform, and advocacy; the overall pre-pageant activities, production quality and global telecast; the enormity of internet traffic; and the extent of popularity amongst pageant fans across the globe.[1][2][3]
