INTERNATIONAL GOOD NEIGHBOR COUNCIL ANNOUNCES SEARCH FOR FORMER MISS DEL RIO TITLEHOLDERS FOR HISTORIC LEGACY FASHION SHOW
“Flourish a Blossom of Fashion & Purpose” Event to Showcase Decades of Regal Pageant Gowns and Community Leadership
DEL RIO, Texas
The International Good Neighbor Council (IGNC) officially announced today a community-wide search for all former Miss Del Rio titleholders to participate in a landmark celebration of the pageant’s enduring legacy. The special historical segment will take place during the upcoming high-fashion event, “Flourish a Blossom of Fashion & Purpose,” scheduled for Saturday, August 29, 2026.
Organized in collaboration with Imperius Events and Claudia Lopez Models Inc., the afternoon runway production is designed to bridge generations of local leadership, empowerment, and elegance. Directors are calling upon past queens to lend their official coronation or pageant evening gowns for a dedicated runway segment honoring the rich history of the Miss Del Rio scholarship pageants. To ensure full participation from all eras, the committee has established a convenient partnership arrangement: former titleholders provide the historic dresses, and Claudia Lopez Models Inc. will provide professional runway models to showcase them.
“Every gown represents a chapter in Del Rio’s history, a commitment to community advocacy, and the empowerment of young women,” said the IGNC event coordination committee. “This dedicated segment is more than a display of beautiful fashion—it is a living timeline of the leadership and grace that has defined our community for generations. We look forward to reuniting our historic court under one roof.”
