Alicia Callaghan: Miss Bikini Ireland Contestant will take her chance on the Runway

DUBLIN, IRELAND — Emerging model Alicia Callaghan is quickly becoming one of Ireland’s standout new faces. Born and raised in Dublin, Alicia discovered her passion for modeling after placing 3rd in the Miss Bikini Ireland 2025 Finals, where her first experience on the catwalk sparked a love for runway and fashion.

Balancing creativity with ambition, Alicia is currently studying accounting while working in promotional modeling, a combination that has strengthened her discipline and drive. “Modeling allows me to express confidence and emotion,” she says. “It’s where I feel most myself.”

Alicia draws inspiration from brands that champion individuality — including Victoria’s Secret, YSL, and Dolce & Gabbana — and admires the elegance of models like Candice Swanepoel. Her dream is to walk international runways in Paris, Milan, New York, and London as she continues to build her portfolio.

Supported by family and friends, Alicia hopes to inspire others to pursue their passions while staying authentic. With a growing digital presence and over 1,100 followers, she is committed to expanding her modeling career while maintaining balance between the worlds of beauty and business.
