Beauty pageants are about serious sparkle, glamour and gowns. Keylee Sanders, former Miss Teen USA, pageant coach, executive director of Miss California USA and Miss California Teen USA, now a highly sought wardrobe stylist, reports on the Miss USA 2009 gowns and offers a pageant secret:
- Three of the top five contestants wore white
- Kristen Dalton, Miss North Carolina, crowned Miss USA on April 19, 2009, wore a turquoise gown with a crystal band
- Eight of the top ten gowns at Miss USA 2009 were designed by Sherri Hill
- The secret to the perfect pageant dress can be summed up in two words: Sherri Hill; Hill is a master at creating gowns that highlight a woman’s body and countless Miss USA beauties have been crowned in her creations
