Miss Scotland Miss World 2025 Hyderabad is more than a beauty pageant headline — it’s a celebration of heritage, strength, and identity. As the world watches the 72nd Miss World unfold in Hyderabad, India, Miss Scotland brings with her more than just elegance. She represents a legacy of strong women, Scottish heritage, and the spirit of cross-cultural exchange that resonates deeply with the ScottishIndian community.
One of Amy’s most meaningful moments took place at the Telangana Police Headquarters. Contestants were welcomed by a live pipe band — playing the Scottish national instrument, the bagpipes.
This was more than just a performance. It was a proud moment. Amy said, “Seeing the band in the tartan and hearing the music made me feel so proud of my heritage.”
Scottish culture was honored far from home — and right in the heart of India.
A Shared Legacy: Women in Policing from Scotland to Hyderabad
This visit held special meaning for Amy. Her family has served in policing for three generations. Her mother became one of the first female officers in Scotland to return to work after having a baby. This was rare and discouraged at the time.
Her mum rose to the rank of Assistant Chief Constable — while raising five children. Amy shared how proud she is of her mother’s journey. She also praised the Telangana Police for their strong focus on women’s safety.
From women-only transport to dedicated helplines, their work stood out. Amy found it inspiring to see so many female officers leading change.
A Warm Welcome in Hyderabad
After the police visit, the contestants were hosted at the Telangana Secretariat. They enjoyed a beautiful ceremony and high tea. A stunning drone show followed, telling the story of Telangana’s history and culture.
Amy called the experience “unbelievable” and said she felt deeply welcomed throughout the visit.
Scottish Heritage Meets Global Stage at Miss World 2025
During the Top Model Final, Amy wore a gown she designed herself. It was made from 100% Scottish wool, in a bold green tartan. The fabric was gifted by @glenislakilts.
Her look paid tribute to the Scottish Lowlands. It was more than fashion — it was a proud statement. She brought her heritage to the world stage, beautifully blending tradition with modern elegance.
Amy Scott’s presence at Miss Scotland Miss World 2025 Hyderabad is more than symbolic. She’s telling a story of strength, identity, and legacy — one that resonates far beyond the stage. And she’s doing it in India, a country with deep meaning for the ScottishIndian community.
