Surrey played host to an extraordinary celebration of beauty, culture, and empowerment as the International World Canada Pageant and Surrey Fashion Week dazzled audiences at the Aria Banquet Hall, Surrey, BC, closing the year 2025 on a spectacular note.
Presented by MyDream TV USA, in association with Drockz Coaching by Meenal (choreographer and pageant & runway training school) and Ways2Fame, founded by Vimmy Parmar, the event was brought to life under the leadership of regional directors AJ (Ajeet Parmar) and VG Group by Vivaan Gupta and Jiya. Together, they curated an evening that seamlessly blended talent, glamour, and purpose on one magnificent stage.
The showcase featured 40 stunning contestants from diverse ethnic backgrounds, eight celebrated designers including talents from Vancouver Fashion Week—and captivating entertainment performances. Each segment beautifully reflected the fusion of global fashion, art, culture, and Canada’s rich multicultural identity.
Graced by an esteemed audience that included Ministers, MPs, MLAs, and City Councillors, the evening stood as a powerful testament to women’s empowerment and cultural diversity. Special appreciation goes to media partner Drishti Magazine and Mr. Nawal Tandon for their immense support and valued presence.
Marking a milestone as the first international pageant of its kind in British Columbia, the event received widespread acclaim, including a letter of commendation from Premier David Eby. The evening gown and national costume rounds, exquisitely choreographed by Show Director Meenal, were standout moments. The National Costume segment, in particular, mesmerized the audience as contestants creatively represented their heritage while confidently introducing themselves to the judges on the catwalk. Every contestant shone, elevated by soulful background music and dynamic live stage performances that kept the audience enthralled throughout the night. The show was very well organized under the pageant directorship of Vimmy.
The evening proudly celebrated its titleholders:
- Teen International World Canada – Krishna Kapor
- Miss International World Canada – Malaeka Kapoor
- Mrs International World Canada – Ussane
- Mrs Elite International World Canada – Dr. Neeti
- Ms International World – Veronica
- Mr International World – Alex
More than a pageant or fashion showcase, the International World Canada Pageant & Surrey Fashion Week emerged as a powerful platform of unity, confidence, and cultural pride; leaving behind not just crowns and couture, but an enduring message of empowerment that will continue to inspire long after the spotlight fades.
