These six exceptional candidates were selected from among the best to advance to the final phase of the tournament. A demanding selection that already marks an achievement in itself: each of them aspired to the title of Diamex 2025 Champion or Vice-Champion.
At this point, a new phase of careful observation and deliberation began for the jury members. Every detail counted, and every performance was carefully re-evaluated to select the two winners of the Tournament!
The consecration of the Winners
After careful consideration and intense deliberation, two names stood out and will forever be engraved in the history of this exceptional edition: the ultimate representatives of European excellence, our Runner-Up and Champion of the Diamex 2025 Tournament of Champions.
It was in an electrifying, passionate atmosphere thatAlessandro Pascoli was crowned Vice-Champion. His remarkable technique seduced the judges with its precision and elegance!
But it was Gaia Ferruzzi who thrilled the Jury and conquered the summit: with a performance of impeccable finesse, she was crowned Champion of the Diamex Tournament of Champions 2025. A dazzling victory worthy of her talent.
Congratulations to both of them for embodying European grooming excellence with such panache!
