Miss Grand Kazakhstan is a female beauty pageant title awarded to Kazakh representatives competing at the Miss Grand International pageant.[1][2][3] The title was first mentioned in 2013 when an Almaty-based model, Yuliya Kolesnik, was assigned by Idol Fashion Management LLC to represent Kazakhstan at the first edition of Miss Grand International in Thailand;[1] however, she was unplaced.[4]
Since the establishment of Miss Grand International in 2013, Kazakhstan has occasionally sent candidates to compete.[1] Its representatives were sent by different licensees each year, and most of them received non-placements at the grand final stage,[4][5] except for the 2018 candidate, Aim Isengalieva, who was named one of the final 20.[1][2]
History
From 2013 to 2014, the license for Miss Grand Kazakhstan belonged to Idol Fashion Management LLC,[6] a Bishkek-based event organizer company headed by a Kyrgyz businessperson, Usen Berdibaev (Kyrgyz: Бердибаев Асан).[7] The Kazakh representatives for these two editions were directly appointed by the mentioned licensee.[1] In 2015, an attempt to organize the first contest of Miss Grand Kazakhstan was observed, but the project was later canceled for undisclosed reasons,[8] resulting in no Kazakh candidate in Miss Grand International 2015.[9]
In 2018, after the franchise of Miss Grand Kazakhstan was vacant from 2015 to 2017, it was then purchased by Volga Models, a Russia-based model agency and the organizer of Miss Tourism Russia chaired by Vladimir Ilyin,[10] who assigned one of the Miss Tourism Russia 2016 finalists, who is an ethnic Kazakh from Astrakhan, Aim Isengalieva,[11] as Miss Grand Kazakhstan 2018.[12] She then competed internationally in Myanmar, where she was placed among the top 20 finalists,[1][2] making her the first and only Kazakh candidate, as of 2023, to be placed at Miss Grand International.[1]
