PROVIDENCIALES, Turks and Caicos Islands – Its was ‘A Day where Beauty was Personified’ at the reflecting pool on the grounds of the glamorous and ultra-exclusive Regent Palms Resort on Providenciales over the weekend. Saturday, March 22nd featured the ‘Digital Dolls’, the nine contestants vying to become the Face of the Turks & Caicos, TCI Top Model 2014!
The event, themed ‘A Dolls World @ The Regent Palms Resort Spa - saw appearances by Samentha Etienne, TCI Top Model 2013; a parade of fashions offered at the Regent Palms Resort worn by Turks & Caicos models that have rocked the catwalks in Los Angeles, New York and London; and Junior Models donned in pristine white, strutting their stuff! There was also a special vocal performance by fashion designer and singer Jermell Williams who kept the audience rapt attention to the catchy song by Sam Smith - ‘Money on my mind’. Guests were not only treated to a fabulous event, but they each received a Lancaster gift bag with products courtesy of the resort.
Wearing daring styles, bright colours, graphic prints, knee-highs, leggings and stilettos courtesy of Shoe Gallery; the fashions complemented the hair and dramatic make-up splendidly. The audience was in awe as each contestant took her turn strutting around the reflecting pool, pivoting and posing to thunderous rounds of applause. Guests commented that the affair debuting the nine young ladies proved to be thoroughly exciting, one in which they have never seen.

Attendees remarked how strong and confident each girl was. They were impressed with their presentation, noting that competition was indeed stiff, as it appeared each girl wanted the TCI Top Model title – and showed it through her performance.
“The presentation of the contestants was very bold and unexpected. I have only ever seen anything such as it on America’s Next Top Model. The wardrobe, hair, make up and those fierce, fun and daring eyelashes – I was completely blown away”, said Dee Barker, Sales Executive at Sotheby’s International Realty. “I couldn’t take my eyes off the ‘Digital Dolls’ as they passed. They were utterly unique; the poise and style at which these young ladies displayed; I was totally transported to somewhere otherworldly. Milan, Italy perhaps... This surpassed my expectation of what a ‘doll’ would look like or a how concept is translated to fashion. Well done to the team behind the production. If the launch was any indication of what the main event will be like, well, I just cannot wait to see the show.”
