Areas of Competition
Each contestant will need a formal gown, a fashion outfit, and black bottoms. High School contestants will submit their resumes and may be awarded additional or tie-breaker points based on their GPA. Top 5 on-stage questions will be based on contestant's next steps, education, and career goals, or post-high school professional plan.
Formal Wear
All contestants will model a formal dress. Judging will be based on facial beauty, stage presence, and poise. Contestants are not judged for the type of dress they are wearing but how well it compliments their style and personality as well of the fit of the garment. No splits, midriff or strapless allowed in Princess division. Formalwear is a slower tempo walk with emphasis on elegance and grace. Modeling experience is beneficial but not required; confidence and owning the stage is equally important.
Fun Fashion
All contestants will model an outfit of their personal choosing. Think high energy New York fashion runway. No modeling experience required. Have fun, rock the runway with this competition, and show your personal style. Fashion can be as simple or formal, casual or dressy as you like. Grab your favorite outfit already in your closet even. Judging will be based on facial beauty, stage presence and poise. Contestants are not judged for the type of outfit they are wearing but how well it compliments their style and personality. Formal gowns and costumes not allowed. All outfits must be tasteful and competition appropriate.

Princess Division will have 20 seconds to introduce themselves on stage by stating their name, age/grade, what they want to be when they grow up and an interesting fact about themselves.​
Queen Division will have 45-60 seconds to introduce themselves on stage by saying their name, age/grade, something interesting about themselves, and their future plans.
