Miss England 2011 National Final: Miss Eco
An Eco fashion show and competition was held on the first night of the Miss England finals at Hilton Birmingham Metropole. The brief for the girls was to wear an outfit on the catwalk promoting sustainable fashion. The outfits that each of the finalists wore were either made from recycled materials, borrowed from friends and family or bought from a charity shop!
