Beauty Pageantry is Expensive!

If you intend to compete in a pageant in 2026, understand this:

1. Pageants are Profit Businesses
2. Franchise Fees and Pageant Related Expenses are constantly increasing
3. Demand for Global Visibility is much higher

To keep up with the constantly changing industry, you need to:

1. Package yourself as a valuable asset and partner to the organisation
2. Have Visibility, you are going to be a public figure (influencer) once you win, so start building visibility early.
3. Be the winner- this is the most expensive part. You need to show up like you have already won, from the Application Video to the Final Night.

Here are 5 ways to raise money for your next pageant while building your brand, skillset and networks.

We recently did a collaborative Photography Workshop with

The goal was to introduce our students to the basics of lighting, and posing. Anyone can plan a photoshoot and take photos, but capturing someone else's vision while still incorporating your artistic signature takes some practice.

This was such an eye opening session, and our students got a chance to feel what it's like to be infront of the lens.

Thank you for such a wonderful and enlightening session and these stunning images.

Maybe the reason you haven’t been signed by a modeling agency yet is that you’re applying to the wrong agencies and doing it unprofessionally.

Being new to the modeling industry doesn’t mean you should be unaware of the basics… especially something as simple as sending a formal email.

At Velour Model Academy, we don’t just train you — we guide you on how to find the right agency for your look, your strengths, and your long-term career goals (if signing is the path you choose after training).

You probably just need the right knowledge to move forward.
