Charne Louise wins Miss Va Va Voom
COOLANGATTA shop assistant and musician Charne Louise took home the title of Queensland Miss Va Va Voom in the Miss Pin Up Australia competition on Friday night.
The 29-year-old was crowned at the Jubilee Hotel in Brisbane.
The Miss Va Va Voom category celebrates girls with a “classically voluptuous curvy body, a modern-day dress size 14”.
Ms Louise, or Miss Lolita Star as she is also known, will now go on to compete for the national title at the Surf N Ink International Tattoo Convention on the Gold Coast in January.
“I couldn't believe I won, I was very pleased,” Ms Louise said.
Entrants on the night were judged on daywear, evening wear, lingerie, swimwear and talent.
“I'm a musician so I sung a song and played the trumpet.”
Ms Louise said the Miss Pin Up Australia competition should be applauded for it's cele- bration of such an alter- native lifestyle.
“It's nice to see something like this for those who do live a slightly different life from every- one else,” she said.
“It's always great to be around like-minded people.”
