Holocaust survivors glam up for annual beauty pageant in Israel

To the strains of Madonna’s ‘Vogue’, 13 women with a combined age of 1,050 walked cautiously down the runway, aided by walking sticks.

The third annual Holocaust survivors’ beauty pageant, for women who survived the Nazi concentration camps in Germany during the Second World War, was held in Haifa, Israel, this week.

Hundreds of relatives turned out in support.
