Mister International Netherlands 2023 is Ilyas Chaouki


Ilyas Chaouki was proclaimed Mister International Netherlands 2023 last July 1 at the Zalencentrum De Brug in Reeuwijk.

The 21-year-old Dutch-Moroccan model and restaurant employee will now prepare to represent the Netherlands at Mister International 2023 pageant in Asia this September.

He succeeds last year's winner and Mister International 2022 Top 16 semifinalist Iliya Shahedi.

"Yesterday evening was something incredible. Shivers are still running through my body," the new Mister International Netherlands shared on social media after winning the competition.

"This has been an incredible 2-month journey, meeting great people, gaining a ton of experience and a lot of joyful memories with new friends," he wrote in another post.

"Let's get ready for that international stage and let's make the Netherlands proud," he added.

Alongside Mister International Netherlands, Mister Senior Netherlands 2023 was also held and the title went to Hedwig Binda.

Hosted by Leila Onyeagbako and Jayand Shanti, this year's event marked the 10th year anniversary of the national competition established by runway coach and plus-size model Lyron Martina.
