The city is gearing up for a pageant show with gorgeous-looking models all set to showcase their talent for the Miss Vizag-2012 title.

Twenty aspiring models, aged between 18 and 25, have been selected from among 80 applicants. The up-and-coming models have been given a one-week grooming session by fashion experts on dancing, nutrition, and on carrying themselves well.

There will be a talent test, where contestants will be performing a two-minute show, either in the form of dance, song, or reciting poetry. Apart from one winner and two runners-up, the other title winners will include Ms. Beautiful Skin, Ms. Beautiful Eyes, Ms. Beautiful Hair, Ms. Talent, and Ms. Photogenic.

The winner of the Miss Vizag-2012 will be receiving Scooty Pep and the other title winners will be given gift vouchers and trophies. “Visakhapatnam has got a lot of branded showrooms and trendy people who want to be part of the fashion industry,” said CEO of Creative Plus Ajay Agarwal.

“But when it comes to fashion element, I feel the city lags behind in exhibiting the same compared to other cosmopolitan cities. So, the initiative is to provide a platform for the up-and-coming models and highlight the trends in the city,” he said. Kishan Bagri extends his support in fashion designing, Amit Pandey from Kolkata assists in choreography, Seema Goel and Dolly Suri will be supporting the participants with make-up and hair styles.

The show will be organised by Creative Plus at Swarnabharathi Indoor Stadium on Saturday in association with SIMS group of companies and Agarwal Home Comforts.
