Mystiq Flax Charles won the Best Look of the Night award and the impromptu model competition during the 13th Virgin Islands Model of the Year event held at the Sidney Lee Events Center on April 10, 2026, organisers said. He wore a red tailored suit with black embellished detailing by Kymasia.
The contest formed part of the Style Week Exclusive Meet and Greet “Red, Black and Silver” party, where contestants for the annual Virgin Islands Model of the Year Competition introduced themselves ahead of the main event.
The impromptu segment allowed both audience members and participating models to compete in a brief showcase focused on presentation and style. Organisers said approximately eight individuals took part.
Charles received a gift certificate from Crucian Gold. Event organiser Jason Gardener also confirmed that he will purchase an additional fashion look for Charles during an upcoming trip to New York this summer.
“I felt amazing. It’s just all about being natural and being myself,” Charles said following the event.
The segment is not an official component of the Virgin Islands Model of the Year Competition but is included as an interactive feature of the evening’s programme.
The meet-and-greet also included red carpet arrivals, live entertainment and a fashion showcase, serving as a preview of the 13th annual competition and part of broader Style Week activities.
