Miss Beautiful tells a story of South African aspiration. It documents the crowning of thirty-two beauty pageant winners who have nothing in common but the desire to become Somebody. Stan Engelbrecht and Temsen de Beer spent two years photographing and interviewing South Africans in casual, evening and swimwear -- queens, princesses and a range of pretty misters from Soweto to Springbok, Margate Beach to Mankweng. Miss Beautiful reveals the quirky 'inner beauty' of South African identity. It is a testament to the transformational power of a title and a crown, and hands a microphone to communities that are clamouring to be heard.'--P. 4 of cover.
