Friderika Melinda Döbrösi Is Miss Teen Hungary 2020

Friderika Melinda Döbrösi from Körmend won Miss Hungary 2020 in the Teen category. The 17-year-old girl imagines her future in the beauty industry. At the moment she is studying to become an aesthetician in Szombathely.

She is really proud of the title that she earned at Miss Hungary and would love to compete in an international environment as well.

Friderika Melinda Döbrösi uses Friderika as her first name, many call her by the nickname ‘Frida’. She is barely 17, but she radiates elegance. However, she also likes casual wear and sneakers.

"I prefer the clean girl aesthetic. I prefer straight legged pants, dresses and cropped tops. I only wear high heels at special occasions. I don’t like heavy makeup either, I like the more natural look."

Friderika recently celebrated her 17th birthday. Almost atthe same time she learned that she won one of Hungary’s oldest pageants in the Teen category.

“Last year I was contacted by Lajos Répás, the CEO of Miss Hungary, who encouraged me to apply to the Teen category. In this category girls between the ages of 14 and 18 can apply, meanwhile the age criteria of the main competition is 18-28.

Unfortunately, due to the pandemic the competition could be only held online, but I am happy regardless about the results. Last September, I was the first girl out of 64 to get into the next round at the audition.

Together with the adult contestants, there were 30 of us to enter the second round. Following this came the training camp: we spent a few days in Hajdúszoboszló and in Gödöllő, where we took high quality video and photos of each contestant.

We had a clear schedule, so we always knew when and where to go. We were absolutely spoiled if I can say, we all had a hairdresser and a makeup artist working with us. It was amazing to take pictures in the castle of Gödöllő, I enjoyed every moment of it. We could even wear the dresses of Sisi, which will be a forever-lasting memory.”

Friderika also said that there were around 2000 pictures taken of her. After the photoshoots they selected the best pictures that made it into the catalogue, based on which the judges selected the winners.

Frida was the only contestant from Vas county. She got the news of her win on the 1st of April.

“I was really happy about placing first. Next to the title I also received a modelling contract. The moment when Dr. Gergely Pataki, plastic surgeon and president of the jury, placed the crown on my head, is unforgettable.”

Many were rooting for Frida to win, and she received a lot of congratulations from both strangers and friends.

“I don't hold on to success at all costs, but this title gives me great joy. I try to keep in shape, because I’d like to compete at an international competition as well.

At the moment I’m working on getting my driver's licence, but school is also important to me. I am studying to be a beautician at Oladi Technikum in Szombathely, which I really like.

I have four dogs with whom I like to spend my free time. Besides that, I like to cook, draw, paint, watch series or hike. Sport is also part of my life, I tried several different things, but horse riding is my favourite.

In general, I would like to put more emphasis on sports in the upcoming months, since everyday I will be closer to the international competition, I have to stay in shape, my muscles have to stay tight. Fortunately, I have good genes, I'm not prone to gaining weight, so I can eat almost anything. This brings some relief.”

Friderika has many followers on social media who congratulated her for the results. But the proudest is her dad who is supporting Frida in everything. This kind of support is crucial when it comes to the beauty industry.
