The alternative miss world was started by Andrew Logan who is an English sculptor, performance artist, jewelry maker and painter. It started out as just another excuse for a party. Logan and his siblings had dressed up – as cowboys and vicars, among other things – since they were little. But it was a visit to Crufts that was the catalyst and, suitably, the event’s contestants were judged – just like Crufts dogs – on poise, personality and originality, rather than on beauty.
The first alternative miss world was "just another excuse for a party", it was held in Andrew's first studio a converted jigsaw factory. All invited guests were asked to come in costume that they had made themselves and would be judged on the same merits that dogs in crufts are poise, personality and originality with the added category of glamour.
