What Wardrobe Do I Need?

Check out our PINTEREST BOARD for Wardrobe Examples!
Teen Wardrobe Examples
 Private Interview 
Candidate Choice: Professional dress, pant suit, slacks and blouse, etc. No jeans, spaghetti straps, or casual clothing. No sparkles, cocktail dresses, hi-cut slits or evening gowns. Show your teen style through your clothes but keep it simple so the judges will look at you and not the dress. You want to wear the dress, not let the dress wear you! 

Opening Segment and On Stage Question
Official sash, Black cocktail dress (not shorter than 4” above the knee) or black pantsuit. No trains or capes or things that drag behind you due to space on stage.  Outfit can have sparkles! Jewelry, shoes and accent pieces can be any color you wish.  Please wear "shorts/biker shorts" under dress as the stage is raised.  Bring pair along if you aren't sure and we will check at rehearsal!   This will also be worn for On-Stage Question competition.

Talent
Candidate Choice: Select an outfit, gown, or costume that works best with your talent. Make sure it is age appropriate. Accessorize as needed.

 Evening Wear 
Candidate choice: all types of gowns, pant suits, and tuxedos are permitted. What would you walk the red carpet in at the Emmy's? Find a formal evening wear outfit that fits and accents your personality, age, and style! Shoes, jewelry, color, and style are also the candidates choice. Be unique, creative, and you! 

Lifestyle & Wellness
TOP: Sports Top; shirt and sleeve length of your choice. Should be something you would exercise in; should not look like a swimsuit. 
BOTTOM: Shorts, capris, pants, skirt. Bottoms can be any color.  Shorts and skirts should be appropriately long to do fitness activities in.
SHOES: Athletic Tennis Shoes
Ultimately, keep this teen, respectable, and something you would work out in. This statement is shared with the judges. ​
