fter all the contestants were called in at once and the Judges
revealed their votes, the Mayor voted for Larra Saldean, the Commander
for Sharein Ti’jah and the Archmage for Sharein Ti’jah making Miss
Ti’jah the winner of Miss Southshore 28Lc! The audience applauded and
several images were captured by Gnomish supersnapper engineers of the
winner and the other contestants. Sadly some supporters of Miss Saldean
began to feel disgruntled by the victory of Miss Ti’jah causing them to
make accusations against the judges of obvious bias, however these
naysayers were eventually won over and this was indeed a good day for
the reputation of Southshore and for ladies fashions within our grand
Alliance.
The contestants were called in one by one and first gave a
demonstration by walking up and down the hall in casual clothes. We saw
some very unique outfits including examples of the presently
fashionable “Loose fitting” dresses and the “Empire Silhouette” which
generally do not require a corset for the clothing set to be complete.
It’s rather obvious that High Elven style is still very important when
it comes to Human fashion, opposing the traditional more conservative
figure dominated by corset lace and tight dresses.
Next up was
the Swimwear demonstration where the contestants showed us their
aquatic attire; many wore the exotic, popular-in-Kezan 'Bee-kini' while
others opted for more unique options such as wearing a fur top and
shorts. Finally was the oratory round, where contestants put on their
best clothes and gave a public speech by answering a question from one
of the judges. Unsurprisingly many of the speeches included anti-Horde
and highly patriotic rhetoric, which went down well with many of the
audience and some of the Judges.
