Remember when Lindsey, Krystal, Regan, Megan Lyman, and Samantha attended pageants, they were always dress up? The local title holders are not in competition mode, their hair is hardly done, they are wearing pants and sweater dresses with boots! At the past few pageants there were three girls dressed properly. In inclement weather, Megan Lyman would walk into the venue in casual clothing with her gown and cocktail in a bag to change into. What is happening and who is taking this serious? I am a sponsor of Miss New Hampshire.

I am going to totally agree with you when the Miss NH's you mentioned entered a room you definitely could tell who was Miss NH. She stood out from the crowd. This years group of titleholders need to step up their game. With the crown comes a responsibility to represent (NT) No name 08:40:25 01/05/15 Mon

I'm from Mass, so please take my comment/question for what it's worth, but is a cocktail necessary for a local pageant? In New England weather, I think a pretty sweater dress and boots would be fine for a local pageant. Maybe not pants, but certainly a sweater dress that looks pretty and somewhat upscale should be ok, no? Also, are we talking about just local titleholders here? I ask because it seems like you mentioned 5 Miss States so I would assume the reference is to your reigning Miss State (NT) No name 12:41:19 01/05/15 Mon

I guess you have never been to Miss New Bedford/Miss Boston/Miss Cambridge where they dress as expected. I do not understand why things have changed so dramatically this year. Style one of the points of the crown. You dress for the job you want. (NT) -- No name, 14:48:06 01/05/15 Mon

Miss NH has a wardrobe allowance, this should not be an issue. (NT) -- No name, 14:52:59 01/05/15 Mon
Maybe now you could answer the question asked. If a girl is attending a local, why is she required to wear cocktail? (NT) -- No name, 04:42:02 01/06/15 Tue

There are different situations for different events. At a pageant the competitors are in evening gowns and the title holders look out of place in these photos. When a local title holder puts her crown and sash on she represents the local, state and sponsors. There is a big difference in how casual this year has become.
