Top 5 Pageant Shopping Tips

Creating, finding and building your pageant wardrobe can be a stressful (but exciting) process! Keep reading to discover our Top 5 Pageant Shopping Tips to make the process quick, easy and of course fun! 

Find Your Color 

Pick a gown color that compliments your skin tone. Why? You want to pick a color that compliments your complexion and shows off your personality! This will translate well with the judges panel and make sure you shine. The best colors for warm skin tones often include colors like green, yellow and warm reds. Cool skin tones typically look best in emeralds, deep purples, lavender, pink, ice blue and bright blues! 

Know Your Budget

Selecting the perfect pageant wardrobe can be a challenge and sometimes overwhelming. We recommend starting with a budget. Then you know exactly where to start, and you won’t fall in love with a gown over budget.

Think Outside the Box 

When shopping for your dream dress, fun fashion or interview; already knowing your style will make the process super easy! However, it’s also important to stay open minded because you may fall in love with a style outside of your comfort zone! You never know til’ you try it on!

Shop for You

You know what you look and feel best in! Don’t let others sway your options, thoughts and feelings! You want to feel 100% confidence and you achieve that by staying true to your unique style!  

Do Your Research
