Miss Finland
Miss Suomi is a national beauty pageant in Finland. The pageant was founded in 1931, where the winners were sent to Miss Universe.
History
The Miss Suomi was held for the first time in 1931. Between 1952 and 1955 the winner of Suomen Neito went to Miss Universe, where Armi Kuusela was also crowned as the first Miss Universe in Long Beach by actress Piper Laurie in 1952.In 1956, due to lack of sponsorship, the national pageant of Suomen Neito was not held, and it made Finland withdraw from the competition. In 1960, Finland returned to Miss Universe with the second runner-up of Miss Suomi 1960, Maija-Leena Manninen, representing the country.
In 1961, the Miss Suomi Organization changed its format to send its winner to the Miss Universe competition. From 1962 to 1963, the first princess of Miss Suomi represented Finland at Miss Universe.
In some years, an appointed candidate has represented her country in Miss World or Miss International.
From 1964, the winner of Miss Suomi has represented her country in the Miss Universe competition.
Franchise holders
The Miss Suomi Organization owns the rights to produce three titleholders to the grand slam beauty pageants: Miss Universe, Miss World and Miss International. The winner automatically becomes Miss Universe Finland while runners-up are crowned as Miss World Finland and Miss International Finland. Before 2007, Miss Suomi Organization also sent a delegate to Miss Europe.Hosts
