Miss Grand Turkey is a female beauty pageant title awarded to Turkish representatives competing at the Miss Grand International pageant.[1][2][3][4] The title was first awarded in 2016 when a Ukrainian-Turkish fashion model and singer from Cherkasy, Diana Birgen (Osypenko), was appointed as a Turkish candidate for Miss Grand International 2016, held in Las Vegas, United States.[1][2][5]

Since the establishment of Miss Grand International in 2013, Turkey participated three times: in 2016, 2022, and 2023; however, all of its representatives were unplaced.[6][7][8]

History

[edit]

Turkey participated in Miss Grand International for the first time in 2016 when a Ukrainian fashion model and singer from Cherkasy, Diana Birgen (Osypenko), was nominated by Miss Grand International beauty pageant management as a Turkish representative in the international competition held in Las Vegas, United States;.[1][2][5] Nowadays Diana Birgen (Osypenko) is the president of the Aegean Ukrainians Association (Turkish: Ege Ukraynalılar Derneği),[9][10] which supports Ukrainian residents in the Aegean region as well as promotes Ukrainian traditions among the Ukrainian community on the Aegean coast.[10]

After five consecutive years of absence, the franchise was then purchased in 2022 by an Istanbul-based model agency, Özcan Yılmaz Agency Model,[11] and a Turkish German social activist who was also the finalist of Miss Grand Germany 2022, Deria Koc, was assigned as a Turkish representative for Miss Grand International 2022 in Indonesia,[3][12] but she was unplaced .[7]
