Evening Gown (1/3) - Required

Wear a long evening gown of your choice.  For ages 4-9, the only criteria is that your gown has straps.  Hemlines should be within 1/2 inch of the floor (no one will be measuring, this is just a guideline), and trains should be manageable and not impede the contestant's walking or modeling pattern.  Walking pattern will be determined as we find out the facility setup, and we will let you know in advance of the pageant what the stage setup will be, along with entrance and exit points.  For ages 10-12, please stay away from tight gowns and high slits.  Judging criteria will be appropriateness of gown, eye contact, smile, confidence, poise, personality and overall impression.

Interview (1/3) - Required

Interviews will be panel-style and 2 minutes in length.  Contestants will enter the room and sit in a chair across from the judges' table.  Questions will start based on information in your bio/entry form and will proceed in a conversational fashion based on responses to questions and how the interview unfolds.  The interview may steer towards topics that are not necessarily on the bio/entry forms depending on responses.  This is not a test, we are looking for a natural personality and conversation.  Wear an outfit of your choice that you feel represents your fashion style.  This includes interview suits, dresses, or pantsuits.  Keep it simple so as not to be distracting from your purpose of letting the judges know the real you.  There will be no political or religious questions.  Be yourself!  Judging criteria will be based on appropriateness of outfit, eye contact, smile, confidence, verbal skills, content, natural personality, and overall impression.  Obviously, age will be taken into consideration, especially for children, as we are looking for natural, not overly coached children.

Fun Fashion (1/3) - Required

Let loose!  Wear an outfit of your choice and style, and work the stage in any pattern that you wish.  Keep the routine within 1 minute so you don't "wear out your welcome."  You might wear a pantsuit, hi-low dress, jumpsuit with skirt or cape, or high fashion runway type of outfit.  No props are allowed.  Judging criteria will be appropriateness of outfit, eye contact, smile, confidence, modeling ability, personality, and overall impression.

Introduction (Optional)

Contestants will have 30 seconds to introduce themselves on stage.  Include your name, hometown, and something interesting about yourself.  Wear a business suit, church dress or pantsuit (most people wear their interview outfit).  Judging will be based on eye contact, confidence, speaking skills, appropriateness of outfit, content, naturalness, and overall impression.

Talent (Optional)

Talent must be performed live on stage at the pageant.  Video submissions are not allowed.  You may use props that you can carry on and off stage by yourself.  There is a 2.5 minute time limit for each performance.  If using your own music, we will provide you with a link to upload your music by a deadline of April 1, 2025.  Costumes should be age appropriate and should not outshine the contestant.  Revealing outfits are not acceptable.  Judging will be based on skill level, showmanship, costume, confidence and overall impression.

Photogenic (Optional)

Submit your best color headshot (half body is also acceptable).  We prefer natural happy photos with smiles that show personality.  We will provide you with a link to upload your photos by a deadline of April 1, 2025.  Glitz photos are not acceptable, but they may be slightly retouched.  Maximum photo size is 8x10.  If you submit more than one photo, only the highest scoring photo will be counted.  Judging will be based on photo quality, personality, originality, and overall impression.

Print Model (Optional)

Select your very best high quality photos (select a variety of poses and outfits, not just headshots).  We are looking for magazine-type photos. Maximum photo size is 8x10.  We will provide you with a link to upload your photos by a deadline of April 1, 2025.  If you submit more than one photo, only the highest scoring photo will be counted.  Judging will be based on photo quality, personality, originality, and overall impression.
