I disagree... a lot of the girls seemed quite ready for the competition. Just because many do not compete on the glitz circuit does not mean that they are "clueless". Many of these girls had competed at Sunburst State in the past so they knew what to expect. My daughter does a variety of pageant types including national glitz and this weekend she did not do anything differently - she had on the same clothes, hairstyle and makeup that she usually wears. Most of the judging seems to be based on poise, personality/smile, and beauty. The clothes did vary widely but it didn't seem to affect the winners one way or the other as long as the clothes were appropriate for the girl and fit well. The girl who won SC 5-up Overall had a short, trendy hairstyle and an off-the-rack dress but the hair and dress looked perfect on her. She had poise, a fabulous smile and was a real darling. I did think some of the older girls would have placed better with a little different hairstyle - maybe a simple pouf or barbie rather than hanging straight or slicked back in a bun. Most people's faces just look better with something that is not so severe. Most also did not have the best posture or eye contact which helps a whole lot! But that is IMHO. lol!
