Philippines crowned Miss Fashion World 2019




Another title has been added in the country’s harvest of victories in international competitions. Sharmaine Rose Magdasoc, a 23-year-old, model and graphic artist from Pasig City, bested 11 national delegates from around the world and was crowned Miss Fashion World 2019 at the glittering finals held at the Palace of Golden Horses in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on July 20, 2019.

Possessing a stunning, beautiful face, the native of Libon, Albay and Information Technology graduate from Asian Summit College, won the judges over with her amazing catwalk skills and professional attitude. “It was a very tough competition. It was very hectic as the contest was scheduled for only a week. I guess my perseverance and good behavior throughout the contest paid off. Some of the girls were already complaining,” Magdasoc told reporters at her arrival in Manila on Monday.

Miss Belgium was named first runner up in the inaugural competition which also gave away special awards including Most Elegant, Best Catwalk, Most Charming, Most Photogenic, Most Fashionistas, Most Popular and Best Skin. The founder and organizers of Miss Fashion World 2019, Isabelle Liow and Dato Sri Dr Warren Eu, in partnership with Tourism Malaysia, promised to expand the competition the next years.

Magdasoc, a consistent honor student and a breadwinner for family, also won the inaugural Turismo Filipina pageant in December 2018. She was a semi-finalist in Miss Global Philippines 2017. Magdasoc, who will return in Malaysia to fulfill her obligation as Miss Fashion World 2019, said that she is open to joining other major national pageants when her reign is finished. (by Eton Concepcion)
