How to Plan Your Wardrobe for a Pageant?  Well, this is the obvious question which pops up in every pageant participants' mind. When planning for pageants, just keep one thing in mind that this is not your daily wardrobe at all. So grab a pencil and paper and let’s get started.

We’re here to remind you of the bare closet necessities and add to that ever-growing list to make sure that you are well-packed and well-dressed at your pageant.

First and Foremost - Interview Dress

Remember first impression is always the last impression.  So make this count. Search for an interview dress that compliments your personality and appearance (from skin tone to hair color to eye color). Find simple earrings and nude pumps and leave it at that. Don’t douse yourself in perfume, tease your hair halfway to Heaven, line your eyes extensively, or draw attention to anything other than your aura. Let your personality and presence speak for itself. That makes for a great first impression. And avoid bling accessories strictly. Especially in the interview room.

Second -  Evening Gown

The Second most important thing is your dreamy dress. Let your dress add to your poise and elegance or try something unexpected just to be remembered. Don’t step a foot in a dress shop or trunk show until you read about the 6 secrets to discovering the perfect evening gown for your next pageant. Always go for a classy choice.

Third – Swimsuit

For a unique image, you should always try different styles of swimsuits; even the slightest belly pudge is made obvious by a swimsuit bottom that isn’t low enough. Sounds odd, but it’s true. You cannot judge a swimsuit on its hanger or a mannequin or any person other than you. That applies to everything, really.

Fourth - Talent Outfit

Well, What is your talent? Most of the people that we can think of, have music intertwined in some way, so start there. What song are you performing? Go with a theme! Every outfit is another glimpse of your personality and taste. However, don’t simply plan for the style. If you are uncomfortable, it won’t go unnoticed. Make sure that you are considering practicality that too with ease.

Fifth - Fun Fashion Outfit

Fashion with Fun… Sounds good eh? Look for something that represents your taste and something you will enjoy modeling onstage. That’s really all there is to it. You should feel more confident in this phase of competition than Angelina Jolie on the red carpet. Bottom line.

Sixth – Cocktail Dresses

A cocktail dress is enough for a picture perfect you. Be ready for it. Bring a nice cocktail dress for each night of competition to exist in. You’ll be glad you did. If you need to purchase some, go ahead.

Seventh - Rehearsal Outfits

You start competing the moment you arrive, and you aren’t finished until you lay your head down at night. Always be presentable. There are always eyes on you. (You can’t hide yourself from Shutterbugs, can you? ). You want to be comfortable in rehearsals, but you can do that and still look stylish. What we wear affects our demeanor and how seriously other people take us. We encourage you to take this into consideration. It’s just another way to stand out.

Be bold, Be stylish, & Be YOU! You can rock any pageant with this attitude!!
