Miss Russia 2022 Anna Linnikova has become one of 16 contestants who will vie for the title of Miss Universe.
The semifinals of the pageant were broadcast on the YouTube channel of the Miss Universe Organization. Linnikova, 22, wore the national "The Crown of the Russian Empire" dress during the preliminary competition on Wednesday where 84 contenders were taking part. The red and white gown decorated with pearls and precious stones was designed by a St. Petersburg couturier in cooperation with the State Hermitage museum.
The finals of the beauty pageant in which the top beauties will be picked from among the 16 delegates will be held late on Saturday (early on Sunday, Moscow time).

Well, there is “clad” and then there is “scandalous.”
You be the judge
Slavic women as a rule tend to be remarkably gorgeous ... of course with an Estonian Mother, I could be a bit biased.
That’s probably the most truthful statement you’ve made in your life
My first thought: what Russian oligarch billionaire will make her his girlfriend, and at what price?
“You can go to any walmart and see about half the 18-35 yr old women wearing that much warpaint.”
Don’t knock Walmart: I met three of my wives there. :-)
A lot of those are really weird.
I agree. However, I do like seeing a little makeup on women, even those who look nice without it. Done subtly, a little makeup on a woman is attractive to most of us guys.
I have always admired my wife’s use of makeup, because she uses it in a very focused and limited way. It is remarkable how much just a little in the right places enhances her appearance.
And a woman who looks really nice without makeup is a fine thing indeed.
I’ll take two...
86 that, the first one would probably kill me.
5.56mm
Google Image search shows you would be correct.
I would love for her to be my future ex-Wife...
Were you Sixth Fleet when you were in the USN??
“I would love for her to be my future ex-Wife...”
More likely she’d be a widow after the wedding night. But, what a way for you to give up the ghost!
Now that we are old, those days are far behind, but she can rest on her laurels forever, because I remember. I still tell her every day how beautiful she is. She is skeptical but it is true. At almost 69 she has just enough gray hairs to prove to other women that she doesn't dye her hair, while my beard is solid white.
I have noticed the young are back to wearing very heavy makeup again and colors that aren’t natural at all. I have seen his trend back in magazines and ads on TV. maybe this is brought on by the tranny thing happening.
A good example would be to bring up Priscilla Pressly when she married Elvis. Back then they wore very very heavy eye make up and overdone thick hairstyles. You could not see Priscilla and how pretty she was because of all that makeup. Her beautiful eyes were hidden under all that heavy mascara and eyeliner.
Then we had a period where very toned down makeup happened for quite awhile.
Now, we are back to the over done makeup. Fashion trend I guess.
Not me... I’ve been doing cardio... :-)
There you go!
But, your FR name...
“Absolutely STUNNING without the makeup!”
I’d say fake eyebrows, fake eyelashes, lip injections AND makeup. But I’m no expert...
Well... Yeah... I’m a lucky stiff... :-)
Not a fan of the “look at my bra” look.
