Theme

ELIXIR

...Dawn Of SHEvolution

ELIXIR was the maiden edition theme of TCQ pageant, and with a renewed purpose has been adopted as the permanent umbrella theme of the pageant — dawn of SHEvolution becomes the sub theme for the second edition not just as a symbol of cultural and values rejuvenation, but as a bold call to awaken the power of womanhood in a changing world.

ELIXIR is often regarded as a magical or healing potion, represents transformation, remedy, and renewal. For us, it captures the spark of something deeper — the rise of a new era led by empowered, visionary women.

"Dawn of SHEvolution" signifies the beginning of a powerful shift — a movement where women are not just participants but leaders of cultural, creative, and social evolution ready to rewrite the narrative by purpose driven queens.

This theme sets the tone for a competition not just of beauty, but of impact, voice, and vision. Welcome to the dawn. Welcome to SHEvolution.
