JUDGES at one of the world's most prestigious beauty pageants had their heads turned by Miss Universe Great Britain.

Hampshire-born Grace Levy won the hearts of judges in last night's preliminaries of Miss Universe 2014, as she took to the stage as one of the 88 contestants from across the globe.

The 25-year-old who grew up in Titchfield wore a pink bikini in the swimwear round of the competition, a dazzling white dress.

In a nod to her British heritage, she even donned a Queens' Guard outfit.

Daily Echo:

The final of the world-famous beauty pageant, which is owned by one of the richest men in the world, will take place on January 25 at the FIU Arena at Florida International University.

It will be aired to millions across the world.

Should Grace win she will receive an employment contract with the Miss Universe Organisation.
