Top Model Worldwide crowns their 2013 winner!

The Hilton London Metropole was the venue and 13^th April was the date. The 44 finalists walked the catwalk in front of an audience of hundreds, as they all competed in the hope of being named Top Model 2013.

After eight months of runways, awards, fabulous fashion and stunning models, Everline A from Kenya was crowned the Top Model 2013 winner. Runner ups were also mentioned with Diana from Ukraine as the first, Amelie from Sweden as the second and Sophie as the third. Although there could only be one winner, every model participating gained invaluable advice and experience which will help them on their road to becoming a model.

What is so brilliant about this fashion event is that not only is it a chance for models to be discovered and be welcomed into the world of fashion, but it is also a platform for up-and-coming fashion designers to showcase their talent.

This year saw designers Omar Mansoor, a London-based couture and occasion wear designer; Serap Pollard, a London lifestyle brand originating from Turkey; Dee Images, an independent fashion label for the sophisticated fashionista; and finally Yes London, a luxury Italian fashion house showcasing their designs as the competing models wore the clothes whilst strutting their stuff on the runway.

The sold-out fashion event is currently on its seventh year and shows no signs of stopping. With high-status sponsors such as Hilton, Babor and SXY Skin backing the international annual event, we can be assured that it will continue to produce top stars set to take the modelling world by storm.
