Two bright young South African stars are stepping onto the international runway after the warmest send-off from home.
Johannesburg, South Africa (17 August 2025) – Some moments in life feel bigger than us, and for two young girls from Gauteng, Women’s Month has been unforgettable, and the best is yet to come!
Diane Van Greuning (11), Face of Colombia Fashion Kids, IÇFK International Titleholder, from Gauteng and Reamoleboga Khabeng (9), IÇFK STAR CAST 2.0, are about to hop on a plane (with their folks in tow) to Colombia, where they’ll strut the international runway and show the world just how bright Mzansi’s stars can shine at Colombia Fashion Kids.
To honour the dazzling young ladies with the special send-off they deserve, after months of dedicated training, the team at International Casting Fashion Kids (ICFK) brought together their cast and crew for an all-pink surprise fit for a princess.
The ladies were spoiled to a Women’s Day fashion shoot, and they nailed it with confidence and all the ‘go girl!’ energy you could wish for.

Diané, who already holds the title of Face of Colombia Fashion Kids, and Rea, the group’s newest ‘little sister’ and a first-time international model, will model for top Latin American designers from Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela, and Puerto Rico.
And while they’re both nervous, excitement wins!
“Walking in Colombia means the world to me,” Diané says. “I want to show that South African girls can do anything.” Rea agrees: “I feel so proud to wear my flag. This is just the beginning.”
Artistic Casting Director, Mervin Marvey, could not be prouder of the young ladies.
“When a young girl steps onto that stage, she’s not just modelling a dress — she’s carrying the stories, resilience, and dreams of an entire community,” he says.
With Miss Supranational SA 2025, Lebogang Raputsoe, leading the way as Creative Director of ICFK, these young queens have plenty of inspiration close by.
This isn’t the first time the group has sent young talent into the spotlight. Since 2023, eleven South African kids have gone on to win titles like Teen Top Model and Super Top Model abroad and one of Diané’s predecessors, Azania Sweeney, Face of Colombia Fashion Kids 2024, went viral in 2023 with a runway walk watched by 29 million people worldwide.
As they get ready to board their flights, Diané and Rea are waving the flag high for young South African girls who dare to dream big. We can’t wait to see what stories they bring home!
