These beautiful and smart girls, among whom there is a master’s degree in mathematics, BSc Horticulture, and students of pre-school education, kinesiology, sociology, international law, have completed demanding preparations for the final selection. “Over 400 girls from all over Croatia applied. The Top 16 were selected through the selection process and entered the final of the Miss Universe Croatia 2023 pageant. They are all educated young girls, some are still studying and as such have an influence on the younger generation by working on small projects with the possibility of positive change. “, points out Ivana Delač, director of public relations at the Ministry of Education and Culture. The contest for Miss has long been no longer just for the most beautiful girl. “At the world pageant, these successful young women know several world languages, have two faculties each and are respected in their countries. They are the real reason why they were chosen as ambassadors of their countries, because they promote and initiate changes in society on their platforms.” explains Delač. During their stay in Zagreb in the luxurious Esplanade hotel, their time was filled with shooting promotional postcards and choosing the wardrobe and shoes they will wear at the pageant. Dorian Gašparović’s camera followed their every step during the preparations.
