Miss Teen Africa Unveils Bold New Sash for the 2026 Season
Miss Teen Africa is set to debut a striking new sash design for the 2026 season, marking a significant shift from its long‑standing black‑and‑gold colour palette. The organisation has confirmed that the new sash will feature a rich purple tone—an intentional return to the brand’s original colour identity and a symbol of royalty, ambition, and youthful empowerment.
The decision reflects Miss Teen Africa’s ongoing evolution as a global platform for young African women, while honouring the heritage and visual language that shaped its early years.

“We’re excited to see our new design,” said Yomi Adegoke, Miss Teen Africa International Director. “Purple has always been part of our brand story, and bringing it back in such a prominent way feels both nostalgic and forward‑looking. We can’t wait to officially reveal it at our next international event.”
The updated sash will be introduced as part of a broader refresh of the pageant’s visual identity, aligning with Miss Teen Africa’s mission to celebrate culture, creativity, and the next generation of African leaders. The reveal is expected to be one of the highlights of the upcoming international showcase, where contestants from across the continent and diaspora will compete for the coveted title.
As anticipation builds, the organisation hints that the new sash is just the beginning of a series of innovations planned for the 2026 season—promising a year of renewed energy, elevated branding, and unforgettable pageant moments.
