Miss Czech Republic 2007: Eighteen year-old Katerina Sokolova

Eighteen year old Katerina Sokolova has been crowned Miss Czech Republic 2007. The brunette secondary school student from the town of Pruhonice near Prague also won the Miss Silhouette title on Saturday. One of her priorities, she says, will be charity work with the aim at improving care for the elderly. Sokolova also hopes to be able to finish school. Twenty-one year-old Veronica Pompeova from the Bohemian town of Jesenice is first runner-up and Miss Elegance, while 20 year-old Veronika Chmelirova from Znojmo, South Moravia, is second runner-up and also Miss Congeniality.

The beauty and talent show's rival, Czech Miss, was held two months ago and was won by 19 year-old Lucie Hadasova from the town of Straznice.
