Newly crowned Mrs. Glamour UK 2025 gets crowned over the age of 40 despite the odds against her... and lands Paris Fashion Week Runway Show
LONDON, UK — July 2025
In a country where over 5 million South Asians call home, and yet fewer than 10 crowns have ever been won by them in over 80 years of British pageantry, one woman has stepped forward... not just for herself, but for every woman who has ever been told she didn’t belong.
Meet Sangeetha Menon, newly crowned Mrs. Glamour UK 2025, and the voice behind a growing movement demanding change.
“Too much.”
Too loud. Too bold. Too brown. Too curvy. Too middle-aged.
And yet — here she is.
Crowned, radiant, and unapologetically present.
AND DID WE MENTION SHE IS WALKING AT PARIS FASHION WEEK! Sangeetha joined Paris Runway Official in 2025 and since has landed a sponsorship that has followed her journey to the crown, covering her with press and PR, as well as the opportunity to walk at Paris Fashion Week in October of 2025.
Yes, this beauty queen has landed a spot on the Runway at Paris Fashion Week come this October 2025. You can see her on the Runway October 5th, 2025 during Paris Fashion Week. This will be the first time the beauty pageant holder walks with Paris Runway Official and her PR team.
“This crown isn’t just mine,” she says. “It’s for every woman who was told to shrink herself to fit in. It’s for all of us who never saw ourselves in the winner’s circle. That ends now.”
A New Era for Representation
Sangeetha’s win marks more than just a personal milestone... it’s a turning point in British pageantry. For over four centuries, South Asians have contributed to the UK’s cultural fabric, yet mainstream recognition—especially in industries like beauty, fashion, and media remains sparse.
“Belonging means more than just living here,” she says. “It means being seen, celebrated, and crowned. It’s time for a new story, one where representation isn’t the exception—it’s the standard.”
Sangeetha’s campaign is anchored in visibility. From the runway to social media, she uses every platform to amplify her mission for inclusive beauty, especially for plus-size, Asian, and middle-aged women.
