List of episodes

The fifth cycle of Holland's Next Top Model premiered on 5 September 2011 on RTL5. Producers of the show aired a joint Belgian-Dutch adaptation of the show, named Benelux' Next Top Model, which ran from September 2009 to November 2010 following the show's fourth cycle. In 2011, it was announced that the two countries would be parting ways and the Dutch version would continue under its original title. Three of the five panel members from the last cycle of Benelux' Next Top Model, including host Daphne Deckers, Bastiaan van Schaik, and Mariana Verkerk returned to the newly independent production.[1]

The prizes for this cycle included a modelling contract with Touché Models valued at 75,000, a brand new Lancia Ypsilon, and campaigns for Max Factor and Zalando.[1]

The winner of this year's competition was 19-year-old Tamara Weijenberg from Apeldoorn, Gelderland.[2] Weijenberg currently holds the record for most best performances in the Top Model franchise, with a total of seven best performances.
