Miss Fashionetta Debutante 2026
A JOURNEY OF GRACE, PURPOSE AND POISE
Hi, I’m Gabrielle Williams!
I’m so excited to represent my community as a debutante in the Miss Fashionetta 2026 Cotillion & Scholarship Gala. This journey is about more than a title — it’s about growth, grace, and giving back.
Through this mentorship experience, I’m learning from inspiring women, building lasting friendships with other debutantes, and discovering the true power of confidence and community.
I’m excited to share this special chapter of my life with you — a journey that celebrates faith, leadership, and community service. Your encouragement and support mean the world to me as I grow into the young woman God is shaping me to be.
With your support, I’m raising funds that will help provide scholarships and empower young women like me to walk boldly in purpose and poise. Thank you for believing in me and being part of my journey! 💕
With Love,
Gabby

What the Miss Fashionetta Journey Means to Her
Participating in the Miss Fashionetta 2026 Cotillion & Scholarship Gala has given Gabrielle the opportunity to grow in grace and confidence while deepening her appreciation for mentorship, service, and sisterhood. She’s grateful for the bonds she’s forming with fellow debutantes and for the guidance of women who are helping shape her into a strong, purpose-driven leader.
From AKAdette...
Gabby’s journey flourished at fast pace at age 12 when she connected with the AKAdettes, a youth leadership and mentorship program sponsored by the Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. Through workshops focused on etiquette, service, scholarship, sisterhood, and confidence, she learned the value of poise and purpose.
to Miss Fashionetta!
Building upon that foundation, Gabby now participates in the Miss Fashionetta Scholarship and Debutante Program, a distinguished initiative that celebrates young women who embody excellence, integrity, and service.
Throughout the Miss Fashionetta season, participants take part in enriching activities that nurture character, confidence, and community awareness. They engage in leadership and etiquette workshops designed to inspire poise and professionalism, participate in meaningful community service projects, and attend cultural and personal development sessions that broaden their perspectives and sense of purpose. Each young woman also develops valuable skills in public speaking, self-presentation, and philanthropy while building lifelong friendships with mentors and peers who share her commitment to excellence.
The program culminates in a formal gala or cotillion, where each debutante is presented to society and recognized for her achievements. Every participant raises funds to support scholarships and community initiatives — marking a meaningful step from mentorship to leadership, and from preparation to purpose.
