TCI TOP MODEL IS BACK - ENTER THE NEW RENAISSANCE
PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands; Thursday, 5th November 2026 - The organisers of TCI Top Model are delighted to announce the return of the Turks and Caicos Islands’ premier modelling and fashion event. The Cycle 8 grand finale, themed The New Renaissance, will take place on Saturday, 24 April 2027.
Renowned for its high production values, multimedia presentations and cutting-edge fashion, TCI Top Model is much more than a runway competition. The programme is dedicated to nurturing aspiring models and creatives through comprehensive training and education. Participants develop essential industry knowledge and skills, providing them with a structured pathway into fashion modelling and the wider creative industries.
The Contest also gives participants visibility and opportunities to connect with a diverse range of professionals and industry leaders, helping to link local talent with opportunities further afield. It has opened doors to commercial modelling and acting, enabling participants to build professional portfolios and pursue work in competitive markets.
Since its inception, TCI Top Model has become the flagship platform for local talent. Alumni have appeared in professional media, commercial projects and fashion weeks at home and abroad, while some have signed with international modelling agencies. These achievements demonstrate the event’s capability to support participants’ long-term development.
Reflecting on the vision for the new season, Dr Courtney Robinson, Founder and Executive Producer of TCI Top Model, said: “Cycle 8 will be a departure from the contests of the past: a transformative journey shaped by the evolving industry. With the New Renaissance, we are ushering in a new era for TCI Top Model and its participants. We are seeking individuals who possess not only elegance and poise but also the passion and professionalism to make their mark on the global stage.”
Dr Robinson added: “Our past winners and alumni have achieved remarkable success, and we are committed to giving the next cohort the same rigorous training, mentorship and opportunities to do more than shine — to thrive. This cycle, we will challenge our contestants to realise their potential and redefine what it means to be a model in the modern age.”
TCI Top Model is pleased to announce the launch of its new website: www.tcitopmodel.com. The site is a central hub for information about the competition, highlights from past winners, and editorial and commercial work by alumni. Visitors can also enquire about booking models through Good Street Management. The website will feature the latest news and event information, with tickets available to purchase when sales open.
Prospective contestants can register for Cycle 8 and begin their journey towards the spotlight. Returning and prospective sponsors and collaborators are also invited to express their interest in partnering with TCI Top Model through the site.
TCI Top Model: a legacy of excellence in motion.
