Outfit of Choice

The girls dress up by the theme of the pageant. They are judged mostly on creativity and theme. The girls can wear just about anything in this competition. Props are usually allowed, too, and in larger pageants, these might be very helpful towards their score. For example, a child might dress as a cowgirl and appear on stage riding a real pony. She might dress as a barbie and pop out of a doll house. Or she might even choose to dress as a fifties carhop and skate onto stage holding a tray loaded with fake foods. Creativity is usually what most often makes up the largest portion of the score here.

Talent

The girls show off any talent they have such as singing, dancing, twirling, gymnastics etc. If the girl wants to be set apart, she will probably do a talent that is not common and many times, they get scored higher for taking a risk. But, they can also be scored much lower if the judges don't like the ideas. For talent, the costume is expected to be glitzy but also go along with their talent.

Photogenic

The photogenic competition includes enhanced pictures of the girls. Photos are usually judged on beauty of the child, creativity, and quality of the photograph. The photographer will usually do some editing and Photoshop work on the Glitz photos to make the girl look like a little china doll, which is the desired look for the glitz photos.

Beauty

They judge the girls on mostly their face. They buy glitzy pageant dresses and model on stage. The girls also get their hair and make up done. The hair and make up is typically overdone because the judges don't really want to see natural beauty because in a glitz competition.

Categories of child beauty pageants

Some child pageants don't include this section of the competition. In pageants such as Miss America, or pageants that aren't for young girls, this is a typical category but in child beauty pageants, evening wear isn't a very common category. But in this category, the girls wear more casual dresses that fit them nicely and are judged on mostly their hair, makeup, gown and body features.

In glitz pageants, this also isn't a very common category because glitz pageants don't like to go casual. But when casual wear is included, the girls can wear a simple outfit, or they could wear something more creative. They usually choose their own music to go with the theme of their look.And in this category, the girls are usually judged on creativity, personality, and modeling.
