34-Year-Old Angélique Angarni-Filopon Becomes Oldest Miss France Winner

The Martinique native’s historic win challenges traditional beauty standards and inspires women to pursue their dreams at any age.

Angélique Angarni-Filopon, a 34-year-old flight attendant from Martinique, was crowned Miss France 2025, becoming the oldest winner in the pageant’s history.
Her victory comes after the pageant lifted its age limit in 2022, allowing contestants over 24, as well as married women and mothers, to compete.
Angarni-Filopon’s powerful speech advocating for women told it was 'too late' to achieve their dreams resonated with both the jury and the public.
Due to Miss World’s age restrictions, which cap eligibility at 27, Angarni-Filopon will not compete in that contest, with her first runner-up potentially stepping in.
She is eligible to compete in Miss Universe, which has removed its age cap and embraced broader inclusivity, including married women and transgender contestants.
