Maybe so but sorry Miss France short hair has been here for yonks try the stars of the Hollywood era and on home territory Joan of Arc shaped up short too.
Coupled with her androgynous body the Judges remained neutral and she won. Call it a sign of the times but why can’t we just think of Breakfast at Tiffanys and Audrey Hepburn. As Solomon said there’s nothing new under the sun so why make the point Miss France. Is there a new Agender.?
