It’s almost that time of the year again when the Keio Plaza Hotel in Tokyo play host to the Miss Nippon Award (ミス日本コンテスト). I mentioned back in October i was lucky enough to meet the grandson of the guy who founded Miss Nippon back in 1950 and it was then that i made it my mission to attend the crowning of the next Miss Nippon.

I hope to touch base with my contact in the coming days and secure a few tickets and rest assured on the night i’ll be armed a with my trusty Canon Camera .

For more information on the 27 ladies vying for this years title you can visit the official website. Or if you prefer to wait, then you can visit back here after the 28th when i’ll endeavour to have all the pictures and results.
