Elvis at Pa Hop 2024

Miss Retro Vintage 2024

Miss Retro Vintage 2024.

There were winners all-round with the high standard of this years entrants for the Waiau Pa Hop Miss Retro Vintage 2024 pageant.

Every contestant had their family and friends on hand for support as well as the strong crowd. The sun shone all day and so did the 16 stunning ladies who took part.

Our very own Kim-Maree Osbourne looking fabulous in Pink officiated the proceedings.

Miss Elsie-Jane took out the 1st spot with Miss Brická Diction in 2nd and Miss Scarlett in 3rd.

Miss Junior Vintage was won by Kenzie-Dawn Dulcee Hogan aka Miss Dulcee Deluxe.

The Judges, Veni Posa and Trudie Clarke had a very difficult time deciding with a recall to the stage, to determine the winners.

We thank all Entrants and look forward to seeing you all plus new contestants in 2025 bigger and better.
