1966 Miss World Reita Fariya

6:53 AM in Fashion

Reita Fariya born Bombay was the first Indian woman to win the Miss World title in 1966. She made the whole world sit up and look at India. By winning the crown, she showed the way for later competitors and gave them a confidence that they can take the world by storm. After her one year tenure she refused modeling and films and concentrated on medical studies which are a sure act to make the present day Miss Worlds to look up on their promised professions. She lives in Dublin, Ireland with her husband David Powell, and has two children and five grandchildren.
