Miss Lady Lace’s Pinup Parade

Miss Lady Lace’s Pinup Parade

About the parade:
Miss Lady Lace’s Pinup Parade is a fun, friendly and respectful parade celebrating the true authentic pinup genre. Where all ages and body types are welcome. Entry and management will carefully managed by WA’s most respected Pinup Queen, Miss Lady Lace. This is not like any beauty pageant with no aspect of the contest being judged on traditional beauty, but rather confidence, character and styling.

This event aims to create a fun, safe and supportive environment for all entrants to share their passions on stage. Miss Lady Lace’s Pinup Parade hopes to create community among vintage lovers, a platform for the pinups of Perth to showcase vintage fashion and help the entrants gain confidence through performance. Outside your comfort zone is where all great things are achieved, don’t be afraid to dream big and make it happen!

The contest: 
For this event we have the theme of the ‘daytrip – picnic in the park” where entrants can showcase their passion for vintage fashion. This can be as simple as donning vintage fashion and think outdoor fun and good food. For the actual contest each entrant has time on stage where they can showcase their outfit for up to two minutes. Some entrants just walk on stage, pose and walk off, so there’s no pressure to create something more complex. Previous successful pinups create a “routine” consisting of a few poses held for a few seconds each (4+ poses is a good start), with movement and audience interaction in between these. It’s also a good idea to create a theme/story line like a vintage picnic or cocktail hour, as this well utilising fabulous styling, props and posing.

Contest guidelines: 
– No prior experience is required to take part in the contest, it is open to anyone over the age of 18-years-old who has a passion for all things vintage.
