The annual TCI

to a career locally or abroad.
Following on
from the launch, event organizers play host to Before Couture: An
afternoon on Regent Street, an event that is open to the public. Regent
Village is proud to be known as the quintessential destination for high-end
shopping, fine wine and dining – where that level of sophistication cannot be
found elsewhere on Provo, let alone the Turks & Caicos. With that in mind,
where else would you expect TCI’s equivalent to “Fashion’s Night Out” in the late
afternoon, but on Regent Street – the uber sexy address on world famous Grace
Bay! Commencing at 4pm, there will be appearances by the 2013 TCI Top Model Contestants,
a fashion show featuring area retailers, live entertainment, challenges,
fabulous cuisine, amazing music and importantly - the most magnificent
pre-event party of patrons lives!

themed Royele Couture: LUXE will
be held at the Williams Auditorium in Providenciales on Saturday, May 4th -

entertainers. Tickets are currently available for purchase – VIP $75 and
General Admission - $50. Persons are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance
of the Contest, as it will be an additional $10 more at the door.
This heavily
anticipated extravaganza is expected to outdo those that came before. There

Winner, with press and publicity being immeasurable. The most desirable prize
for the Contest winner is being named Digicel TCI Brand Ambassador for
