Miss International Posture Queen, 1957
Etiquette and posture were a way bigger deal back in the 1950s compared to today. Beauty pageants were also a lot more popular. What do you get when you combine the two? Miss International Posture, of course! This photo is a relic that makes many modern-day viewers scratch their heads. Miss International Posture Queen of 1957 is striking a pose with something other than flowers.
This woman is posing next to an x-ray of herself, which we’re assuming was the deciding factor in choosing her as queen. We’re kind of hoping she hung this photo up in her home, because it’s pretty cool. Of course, beauty pageants are still around today, but perfect posture isn’t the most important part of choosing a winner.
