AREAS OF COMPETITION:

Judging is based on personality, appearance, character, ability to articulate ideas and answers to judges' questions (no political, religious, or controversial questions will be asked, unless a contestant specifically lists such topics in their Biography).
Contestants must wear a nice dress or skirt suit. It should be a dress that reflects your personal style and personality, and compliments your personal shape. It should not be ill-fitting [not too tight, and not too loose (not baggy)]. Solid colors work best. No pant-suits.
2. EVENING GOWN/POISE & APPEARANCE (30%)
Contestants must wear a floor-length gown of their choice, and will be judged on poise, appearance, appropriateness of fit, & gracefulness on stage.
3. FUN FASHION (30%)
