Search is on for Miss Big & Beautiful
Beauty contest for the fuller figured launched
On Easter Sunday, Tee’L Productions presents Miss Big & Beautiful Bermuda, a pageant for fuller figured women. Right now, organizer Terry Smith is looking for women to compete in the pageant. He said, “There will be a lot of variety — it’s going to be a lot of fun, and very entertaining.”
This year’s winner will not only win $500, but will also be featured in the May 24 and Christmas parade. The first runner-up will receive $200 and the second runner-up will receive $150. There will also be a prize for Miss Photogenic.
Smith hopes to make the pageant an annual event. Smith said: “The purpose of this pageant is to showcase the style and elegance of the full-figured women in Bermuda.”
Contestants will participate in the evening dress category, the swimwear category and the personal choice category.
“We’re trying to keep the swimwear category as tactful and as classy as possible. For those ladies that want to wear swimwear they can, but basically it’s beachwear, swimsuits, shorts or wraps,” Smith said.
The pageant will be held at City Hall on April 16. Women must be 21 or older and be “voluptuous”.
They also must have been on the island for at least six months prior to registration. Registration forms are available at La Trattoria. For more information call Terry Smith at 337-5552.[[In-content Ad]]
