With so much emphasis in today's society on outward appearance and on being thin, oftentimes heavier girls find it difficult to accept themselves because they are not considered "acceptable". More and more plus size, and even average size teens, having poor self-images, are turning to negative influences such as eating disorders, drugs, alcohol, gangs, promiscuity and various compromised lifestyles in order to "fit in". The Plus Teen USA Pageant encourages and guides plus teens to accept themselves in the skin they're in and to become the best that they can be; fit and fantastic- from the inside, out.Teen girls, sizes 12 and up, will gather together from all over the United States to participate in an entire weekend of fun, friendship, education and inspiration for the Plus Teen USA Pageant to be held in the Dallas Metroplex from August 15-17, 2008! If you or someone you know is a plus size teen (13-19) and are interested in being a contestant in the Plus Teen USA Pageant, visit www.missplusteenusa.com....Because You're Only A Teen Once!

What will you get for joining a beauty pageant?
Sometimes for joining or entering a pageant, you get only the right to be a contestant. Some pageants give all contestants a ribbon or small trophy for entering. Each beauty pageant has its own owner. The owner determines the type of and size of the beauty pageant. The owner also decides what the winnings are, which depends on the size of the pageant and the number of contestants. Most pageants have an entry fee; this determines how much money is available to finance the winnings. Winnings can include large or small amounts of cash, scholarships, various sizes of trophies, medals and ribbons. Some include gift certificates from businesses and any other item a business wishes to donate.

What is the criteria for a beauty contest?
Beauty pageants are generally multi-tiered and popular, with local competitions feeding into the larger competitions. The worldwide pageants, thus, require hundreds, sometimes thousands, of local competitions. In the United_States, there is now a commercial beauty pageant industry that organizes thousands of local and regional events for all ages for profit supported by magazines like The Crown Magazine and Pride of Pageantry.The typical perception of a beauty pageant is that it occurs once a year, has women of a petite frame, the event is live on stage, and that a talent is involved somehow. Particularly with the advent of the internet, this perception has changed drastically. Although they are not "live," Internet and mail-in pageants have provided a plethora of entertainment to those who compete and an opportunity not available to those unable or hesitant to travel.Size no longer is a limiting factor as many competitions espouse the goal of "natural" beauty. There are also more and more pageants, which are dedicated to the "plus sized" delegate. While a size 14-16 may be considered a traditional plus-size in the US, in the pageant world a size 6-8 may be considered as plus depending upon the pageant system.Although the selection of a Beauty Queen is thought to be an annual event, there are no hard and fast rules as to the frequency of selection. Pageants have also changed dates and frequency based upon the needs of the Organization. Take for instance, Miss America. For decades, Miss America was held during the fall with the pageant usually occurring in September. Recently, the date changed to January. This produced a term of greater than a year length for that Miss America.On the other hand, some terms have been shortened due to needs of the Organization. For example, during its formative years, the Mrs. United Nation Pageant had several seasonal changes with some Queens holding a term of less than a year.There are other pageants who take a totally different approach altogether. Particularly in reference to on-line photogenic pageants, there are competitions in which a winner is chosen on a monthly or even weekly basis. There are those who will take each of these as a "preliminary winner" with the intent upon a "final" competition at some later date. Others treat each of these as a "final" winner and provide a title.Regardless of the method of competition, break down of scores or frequency of selection, all are defined as "entertainment in the form of a beauty pageant." It is up to the individual to determine which is best suited for competition or of particular entertainment interest.

The Popularity of Plus Sizes Leads to Increased Fashion Options?
Any woman who wants to find plus size women's dresses is likely to have better luck than ever before. The plus size market has increased in the past few years and made plus size clothing more available. This is due in large part to the changing size of the average female. Many plus size women have found this availability of clothing that is made just for them to be a blessing. They no longer are limited to pantsuits or large shapeless dresses. They have helped make plus size women's dresses fashionable. It is now easy for a plus size woman to find a stylish dress that will make her feel great, no matter what the occasion. Plus size dresses that are not too clingy but are properly tailored can really show off a plus size woman's curves. These kinds of dresses can be great for the office in addition to socializing. Plus size women's dresses are also better for movement for plus size women than pantsuits, which will increase the amount of comfort that you will feel. Many designers in recent years have begun to create fashionable plus size dresses that are best for the forms of plus size women. These dresses are now more chic than they ever have been. In general, many of these dresses are similar to the designer dresses that are created for women who do not wear plus sizes.

It is important for a plus size woman to choose a dress based on her own personality and style.

The right tailor will be able to make sure that the dress you choose will highlight your curves in the most positive ways. Plus size women do not, however, need to limit themselves to designer dresses; instead, they can also look at the other plus size dresses that are available in more standard designs. The most important thing for plus size women to do is to enjoy the new options they have.
