Representing the Cayman Islands, 13-year-old Kalani Menendez recently crowned her successor at the World Imperial Beauties International Pageant in Orlando, Fla., after a year of holding the title of 2024 World Imperial Beauties Preteen.
Kalani’s modelling journey began in December 2024 at the 4th Annual Miramar Fashion Weekend in Florida, followed by her appearance in Cayman InStyle Fashion Week in April 2025. She was a recent winner at Magnifique Showcase, which is run by former “America’s Next Top Model” contestant Victoria Elizabeth.
Kalani is passionate about the performing arts. This year, she is excited to play one of the Pink Ladies in her school’s production of “Grease.”
