All outfits should be an extension of your personality, don't try to be someone else.  Think fashion forward, expressive, and true to you. 

 

Some suggestions:

 

• Have a theme for your outfits that ties together in all areas of competition, for example Hollywood Glam, Vintage, Old Money, Glam, Elegant and Sophisticated 

• Pick a color that shows up in all of your outfits (be careful not to have all of your outfit be the same color solid, instead think hits of the color on some outfits)

• Pick a fashion personality that is expressed in all your outfits

​

Formal Wear:

Women's Evening Gowns should brush the floor with no toes showing

​

Men's evening wear should be properly fit; jacket shoulders, sleeves and pant legs (google it) 

​

Interview and Impact Statement Attire:

​

Dress to impress, should be professional with a fashion forward look, again this is a great place to express your personality in your outfit. 

​

Hair and Makeup:

​

Makeup - When it comes to makeup, Royal United Universe is not a Glam pageant and it is not a Natural pageant, we are an Elegance pageant.  That means we want you to enhance your natural beauty without looking like someone else.  We should be able to look at your headshot and pageant photos and recognize you walking down the street in jeans and a sweatshirt.  

​

Hair - You have the freedom to do your hair however you like.  As long as it is in line with your true self.  If you love Big Hair, make it Big, if you love extensions, use them, if you don't ever use products and keep your hair natural, then style it in a way that is appropriate for each area of competition.  Extensions, Big Hair and over the top hair styles are not required - We want you to be real and true to yourself while looking elegant and Royal!
