Topmodel, cycle 1 was the first cycle of the reality series Topmodel hosted by Ingrid Seynhaeve. Ten contestants lived together in a luxurious apartment until the top four travelled to New York for the rest of the cycle.

Contents

In contrast to America's Next Top Model, the host was not part of the judging panel. Ghislaine Nuytten was the judging chairwoman and called out the girls onto the next round at the judging panel. The bottom two contestants were then officially nominated for elimination, with Marc Douchez from Dominique Models having the final say on who went home and who stayed.

The winner was Hanne Baekelandt, who won a €25,000 modeling contract for management and representation by Dominique Models, a campaign for L'Oréal cosmetics, and the cover on Glam*It magazine.
