The triumphant Miss World Spain 2017
MARIA ELISA TULIÁN a 21-year-old from Mallorca battled against 51 other contestants to be declared Miss World Spain in Girona last Saturday.
Describing herself as “sympathetic, enterprising, responsible and, above all, very fierce” the drama student represented the Balearics and over a period of days prior to the Saturday Gala had to win one of seven events in order to take her place in the final.
Eli Tulián as she likes to be known won the sports test, but other tests included talent, multimedia, top model, regional costume test, bathing costume and beauty with a purpose, so she found herself on the night of the final against six other girls.
After a preliminary round, the final five were chosen, Eli triumphed, was crowned Miss World Spain and will now go forward to take part in the 67th Miss World competition which will be held in China in November with an expected 100+ contestants.
