The 11th Miss Irkutsk beauty contest is taking place in Irkutsk, where an independent jury will choose the winner from 21 finalists to represent the city at Miss Russia. This year the contest is held under city administration patronage, and the participants were given everything free, from makeup to shoes. The show staging also draws special interest. Lina Arifulina is working on it, and each stage appearance promises to be a mini performance focused on artistry, grace, and charisma.

The best of the 21 finalists will be chosen by a professional and, most importantly, independent jury headed by the regional director of the Miss Russia competition, Ekaterina Kabanova. The jury of the competition includes heads of major international and Moscow modeling agencies, fashion designer Alexandra Serova, artist Misha Lenn, fashion TV host Milana Koroleva, and others.
The Miss Irkutsk beauty contest has been held in Irkutsk for the 11th time already. For the first time this year, the competition is taking place under the patronage of the Irkutsk city administration. The event is organized by the municipal autonomous institution “Holiday” and the company “Fashion Time.” Also this year, the girls did not have to pay any participation fees for the competition. In addition, everything they need, from makeup to shoes, is provided to the participants by the event organizers.
For the first time, the chief stage director of the show was the well-known author and director of many top-rated programs on Russian TV, such as “Dancing with the Stars,” “ProjectorParisHilton,” and “Star Factory,” Lina Arifulina. The girls’ runway preparation and choreography are handled by the professional international-level team “ZATYLKIN FASHION TEAM.”
In full composition, the contestants will take the stage three times, after which the jury will choose the top 10, and then the five finalists. According to the competition organizers’ concept, each appearance on stage is a mini-performance in which each beauty will have to demonstrate her acting talent, grace, intelligence, and sexuality.
The winner of the competition will represent Irkutsk at the all-Russian beauty contest Miss Russia. Various prizes and valuable gifts have also been prepared for the finalists of the competition.
