Red reigns: The colour thread linking five Queens
Every winner of Ghana’s Most Beautiful from 2021 to 2025 rocks an outfit that included a touch of red.
This fashion choice stood out across five seasons of the popular beauty pageant, which celebrates culture, confidence, and regional pride.
The winners came from different parts of Ghana, but their shared use of red created a visual link that caught the attention of viewers and fashion lovers alike.
Interestingly, some designers may choose red to highlight boldness or to honour tradition. In the case of these queens, red appeared in different forms—from kente patterns and beadwork to embroidery and flowing gowns. Each winner used the colour in her own way.
Fashion plays a big role in how contestants express themselves, and the final night is known for the dramatic, elegant outfits. That’s when the red details shine the most under the lights, in front of the judges, and across social media.
But over five years, the pattern has become clear. Red is more than a colour; it is a statement. It connects winners across time and space, showing that beauty, culture, and confidence can be stitched together in one bold shade.
