21-year-old Kincső Dezsényi has won the Miss Universe Hungary title and will go on to represent Hungary at the world final in Thailand.
The Miss Universe Hungary 2025 final took place on 13 September, where the crown was awarded to Kincső Dezsényi. The red-haired, blue-eyed winner is currently studying physiotherapy and will carry the Hungarian flag at the global competition in Thailand.
Twelve young women reached the national final, with ten contestants taking to the stage at the gala. This year, the jury evaluated not only beauty, but also personality and presence. The panel was headed by businessman István Hajós, with a female majority influencing the final decision. The event was streamed live on the Miss Universe Hungary YouTube channel.

Several past winners have remained in the spotlight following their victories. In 2024, the crown went to Nóra Kenéz, who impressed the judges with her classic beauty and confident presence. A year earlier, in 2023, Tünde Blága won the title and also appeared on the reality show Farm VIP.
Many former Miss Universe Hungary winners have achieved commendable results at the international event, demonstrating that Hungarian contestants can hold their own among the world’s most beautiful contenders. Though a global title has so far eluded Hungary, the competition offers an annual platform for the winner to showcase her country and individuality to an international audience.

Hungarian success stories in the spotlight
Beauty pageants have long captured the public’s attention in Hungary, and several winners have gone on to become prominent public figures. The Miss Universe Hungary crown is particularly significant as it guarantees the winner a place in the final of one of the world’s most-watched beauty contests, followed closely by the international press.
In the lead-up to the world final in November, the beauty queen will undergo intensive preparations. The training is comprehensive, covering not only runway skills but also media communication, language training, and public engagements. In the Miss Universe contest, charisma and confidence are just as crucial as physical beauty.
For Kincső Dezsényi, victory opens the door to a wealth of opportunities. Alongside representing Hungary in Bangkok, she may be offered endorsement deals, media appearances, and involvement in charitable initiatives. She even has the potential to make history by becoming the first Hungarian to win the Miss Universe crown.
