Miss Europe 1954 was the 17th edition of the Miss Europe pageant and the 6th edition under the Mondial Events Organization. It was held in Vichy, France, on June 20, 1954. Christel Schaack of Germany, was originally crowned Miss Europe 1954, by outgoing titleholder Eloisa Cianni of Italy. However, it was later revealed that Schaack was a widow and thus she was disqualified from Miss Europe and stripped of her crown. The crown then went to the 1st runner-up Danièle Génault of France. Despite being a widow, Schaack was allowed to keep her national Miss Germany title as the requirements for Miss Germany at the time only stated that single unmarried women can participate with no ban on widows or women with annulled marriages. The jury for this years pageant, in response, gave her the title of "Honorary Miss Europe", even though Danièle Génault of France was awarded the official crown and title. The Mondial Events Organization/Miss Europe Organization continued to list Schaack as the official winner on their website until the site was shut down in 2006.
