“There’s talent and sports rounds, Bare Face Top Model, and Plastfree Eco Queen rounds where contestants are invited to create an outfit made from recycled materials, along with a public vote,” she said.
“We are wearing beautiful ballgowns on the catwalk from To The Nines too, so we can’t wait to take to the stage. I’m so excited to finally take part."
The Miss England final was postponed twice last year and more recently last month – and the 45 finalists were chosen virtually during lockdown, which means they will come together at the finals for the first time.
