Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model, cycle 7 was the seventh cycle of Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model. It aired from 4 July to 26 September 2011. The show's title was changed from Britain's Next Top Model to Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model, as the show was broadcast in, and auditioned contestants from, the Republic of Ireland as well as the United Kingdom. The judging panel remained the same as in cycle 6, with Elle Macpherson returning as executive producer and host alongside judges Julien Macdonald, Grace Woodward and Charley Speed.
Unlike cycles 5 and 6, which used the traditional "casting week" format used on America's Next Top Model, cycle 7 auditioned contestants in Glasgow, London, Cardiff, Birmingham, Manchester and Dublin. This audition process was covered by the first three episodes of the cycle. In the fourth episode, the eighty-five contestants selected were invited to "boot camp", which concluded with the selection of the thirteen finalists.
The winner of the competition was 20-year-old Jade Thompson from Stoke-on-Trent. Her prizes were a modelling contract with London-based agency Models 1; a six-page fashion spread in, and cover of, Company; a luxury holiday in Sandals Resorts in Jamaica; a Peugeot RCZ; a cosmetics campaign with Revlon and a £50,000 international fashion campaign with Miss Selfridge.
