Miss Pays de la Loire is a French beauty pageant which selects a representative for the Miss France national competition from the region of Pays de la Loire. Women representing the region under various different titles have competed at Miss France since 1960, although the Miss Pays de la Loire title was not used regularly until 2006. Until 2010, women from the department of Loire-Atlantique were eligible to compete in Miss Brittany rather than Miss Pays de la Loire, due to the department's historical ties to Brittany despite currently being located within the region of Pays de la Loire.

The current Miss Pays de la Loire is Clémence Ménard, who was crowned Miss Pays de la Loire 2023 on 30 September 2023. Three women from Pays de la Loire have gone on to win Miss France.

  • Jacqueline Gayraud, who was crowned Miss France 1964, competing as Miss Vendée, following the dethroning of the original winner
  • Linda Hardy, who was crowned Miss France 1992
  • Valérie Claisse, who was crowned Miss France 1994
