She was crowned Miss Universe not only by her good looks and tall and proportionally curvaceous figure as seen in the pageant's swimsuit and evening gown competitions (in her prime, in photo below).
Her response to the "question and answer" portion of the contest was the clincher. To the common question: What is the essence of a woman? Sushmita Sen replied: "Being a woman by itself is a gift of God which all of us must appreciate. The origin of a child is a mother and is a woman and the woman is the one who shares and shows a man what love, caring, and sharing is all about. That's the essence of a woman".
This photo truly captures the essence of a woman (below, Sushimita, still beautiful in her mid-life). Age is but numbers for her!
