Top Model of the World is one of the most internationally recognised and prestigious modelling competitions in the industry. Founded in 1993, the pageant is designed to discover rising stars in fashion and provide them with a global platform to launch their careers. Organised by the World Beauty Organization, the competition celebrates beauty, confidence, and individuality—on and off the runway.​
Each year, contestants from around the world come together in breathtaking locations like Hurghada and Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt, where they take part in high-fashion runway shows, editorial photoshoots, themed galas, and public interviews. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience that combines luxury, personal development, and professional exposure.
​The most recent 31st edition, held in 2025, welcomed over 40 delegates to the Red Sea coast for a two-week journey of competition and connection. Natalia Garizabal Vera of Colombia was crowned Top Model of the World 2025 in a stunning grand finale. But every contestant walked away with more than memories—this competition opens doors, builds confidence, and for many, marks the start of an international modeling career. More than a pageant, Top Model of the World is a celebration of global talent, diversity, and empowerment. It’s where future icons are born—and where dreams take the runway.
