From medical school to the fashion runway, Ngo Kim Duyen has chosen to develop herself across multiple fields rather than limiting her potential to a single role. A qualified Doctor of Medicine, the Second Runner-up of the Nguyen Tat Thanh University Health Sciences Student Beauty Contest, and an active participant in community initiatives, she now continues her journey as a Student Model Ambassador for Global Fashion Week All Stars 2026. Her path reflects the image of a young professional who pursues knowledge, actively embraces new experiences, and is committed to spreading positive values throughout the community.
Emerging from the medical lecture hall
A graduate of Nguyen Tat Thanh University with a Doctor of Medicine degree, Ngo Kim Duyen has built a distinguished journey that combines academic excellence, community engagement, and participation in beauty competitions. During her medical training, she completed clinical practice at Thong Nhat Hospital, where she gained valuable professional experience while developing the resilience required in the demanding field of medicine.
Alongside her studies, Kim Duyen actively participated in Youth Union activities and numerous volunteer initiatives. Her consistent involvement in community and student programs enabled her to strengthen her communication, teamwork, and organizational skills while broadening her experiences beyond the classroom.
One of the defining milestones in Kim Duyen’s journey was earning the title of Second Runner-up in her Faculty’s Student Beauty Contest. This achievement marked her transition from an academic environment into the world of fashion, opening the door to a wide range of artistic opportunities and allowing her to establish herself as a well-rounded young professional. It also laid the foundation for her continued involvement with Global Fashion Week All Stars 2026 as a Student Model Ambassador.
Balancing between passions for self-affirmation
Pursuing a medical degree with its demanding academic and clinical workload while simultaneously participating in student activities and the fashion industry, Ngo Kim Duyen has learned to manage her time effectively and balance multiple responsibilities. In her view, each environment offers valuable experiences in its own way: medical school strengthens her professional knowledge, community activities develop her organizational and communication skills, while fashion provides opportunities to build confidence, adaptability, and composure in front of large audiences.
Drawn to fashion through her appreciation for beauty, Kim Duyen considers it an integral part of her personal growth. She believes that the value of young people is reflected not only in their appearance but also in their knowledge, skills, attitude, and sense of responsibility toward the community. This perspective has motivated her to continuously strive for self-improvement and remain open to learning across a wide range of disciplines.
Milestones such as graduating with a Doctor of Medicine degree, earning the title of Second Runner-up in the Student Beauty Contest, and her active involvement in community initiatives have helped shape the image of a well-rounded young professional. These accomplishments have also provided a strong foundation for Ngo Kim Duyen to continue her journey as a Student Model Ambassador for Global Fashion Week All Stars 2026, representing a generation of Vietnamese students who are dynamic, resilient, and ready to engage with the international community.
Joint adventure with Global Fashion Week All Stars 2026
Continuing her journey of personal and professional growth, Ngo Kim Duyen has officially been appointed as a Student Model Ambassador for Global Fashion Week All Stars 2026. Developed from Vietnam International Junior Fashion Week after eight years of continuous growth, the event now operates as an international fashion week uniting three creative communities—All Stars, Junior, and Student—with the goal of connecting designers, fashion brands, artists, and the next generation of creative talent from Vietnam and around the world.
In her role as a Student Model Ambassador, Kim Duyen will work alongside the organizing committee throughout the event’s promotional campaign before and during the fashion week, helping to promote Global Fashion Week All Stars 2026, strengthen engagement with the student community, and showcase the spirit of the Student community. The event will take place from July 30 to August 2, 2026, at the Vietnam Exposition Center (VEC) as part of Vietnam Event & Exhibition Week 2026 (VEEW).
From being a medical student to becoming a newly qualified physician, earning the title of Second Runner-up in the Student Beauty Contest, and now serving as a Student Model Ambassador for Global Fashion Week All Stars 2026, Ngo Kim Duyen has steadily established herself as a young professional who successfully balances academic achievement, personal growth, and social responsibility. Her journey reflects and promotes the spirit of lifelong learning, proactive global engagement, and well-rounded development that defines today’s generation of Vietnamese students.
