Searching for our new queen

For 38 years, Miss Namibia has been celebrating Namibian women. The search for a new goodwill ambassador and a national representative was officially launched this week by event organiser Conny Maritz. The annual crowning extravaganza of Miss Namibia 2018 will take place on 7 July at the home of Miss Namibia pageant, the Windhoek Country Club Resort and Casino.This year's event promises to be bigger and better as the organisers have identified new and young designers to dress the finalists for the main event. The newly appointed designers include Cayla Boucher and Wilma Kawedi for the cocktail scene, and Donald Diergaardt for the evening gowns.“To stage the pageant in a manner of doing justice to the importance of the occasion and to justify the national interest in the event is a costly affair. Thank you to every sponsor for their contributions,” said Maritz. Like last year, an exciting line-up will be prepared for the contestants, such as fundraising events which will lead to the last day of the main event. The pageant, together with the 30 semi-finalists will host a fundraising winter ball, where the lady that will raise the most funds will be an automatic finalist in the competition and will receive the title of Miss Debutant. During this evening the other top 11 finalists will be announced who have been selected by a panel of judges, and Standard Bank's Women of Excellence winners will be announced. Confirmed sponsors include Windhoek Country Club Resort and Casino, NBC, Air Namibia, Coca Cola, Pupkewitz Toyota, Standard Bank, Biosculpture Namibia, Torga Optical, Graftobian Make-up and Emanya- Etosha. The closing date for entries is 21 May and the 30 semi-finalists will be announced on 23 May. JUNE SHIMUOSHILI
