History
The very first winner of Miss Ecuador pageant was Sara Chacón Zúñiga from Guayas province in 1930. The contest was inactive for 25 years until 1955 when Leonor Carcache won the first modern title of Miss Ecuador and became the first representative of the country to the Miss Universe pageant.
Representatives from the 24 provinces that make up Ecuador compete annually for the title of Miss Ecuador among others. Miss Ecuador selects representatives for two of the Big Four international beauty pageants namely Miss Universe and Miss International. In addition, the pageant also selects candidates to represent Ecuador in other international contests such as Reina Hispanoamericana, Miss United Continents and Miss Landscape.
