Eco Model International Search 2011 Grand Finale

Eco MODEL International Search is the first event of its kind in Malaysia that showcases models who symbolize a healthy and balanced lifestyle, show concern for the environment and care for the community. The pageant is to reinvent and improve the concept of beauty competitions in the belief that beauty queens can be great and effective advocates of worthy causes, consistent with Government initiatives on green growth and green economy.

Among the requirements for being an Eco MODEL International are that the model must practice eco living, show concern for the environment and minimize waste. They must also practice three fundamental purchasing and living attributes which include (1) choosing durable items made in a sustainable manner, (2) practice purchasing used and remade clothes, rent handbags and (3) undertake community service projects.

The models participating in Eco MODEL Search International have undergone a five-day intensive health screening, numerous health and exercise routines, participated in eco walks, attending classes for cooking healthy meals and participated in voluntary community work. They have also had to undergo IQ tests.

Their clothes are made from polyester fabrics recycled from plastic bottles or organic cotton on which the prints were made from natural dyes. The shoes were made with green manufacturing processes and the accessories all have  eco designs.

This event is an important curtain raiser for the Second International Greentech and Eco Products Exhibition and Conference (IGEM) to be held at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) from 7-10 Sept 2011. IGEM is the region’s largest Green Technology and Eco Products Exhibition ad Conference.

The co-emcees at the Grand Finale of Eco MODEL International Search were Mix.fm DJ, Pietro Felix and TV host/producer, Jojo Struys who gave a riveting tap dance performance. Pietro interviewed the models who were largely articulate, confident and coherent about the importance of adopting an eco lifestyle.
