Most parents believe their child to be the most precious child to ever walk this earth. In fact, some parents feel their child is so adorable that they enter them into a beauty pageant. When a parent decides to enter their little one into a beauty pageant they must then convince the judges that their child is more adorable than the other pageant contenders.

Parents who enter their child into a beauty pageant often have to pay a pretty penny to do so. Along with the cost of the entry fee, parents can end up spending money on wardrobe, travel, make-up, and sometimes coaches. Often the most expensive part of a beauty pageant is the cost of girls pageant dresses.

Most beauty pageants will have a formal wear segment in which the contestants are to wear a formal beauty pageant dress of their choosing. Typically, children 0-9 years of age can be seen wearing a girls pageant dress similar to a flower girl dress or a dress described in the beauty pageant world as “vogue” or “glitz.” The vogue and glitz dresses tend to be flashy, custom-made girls pageant dresses, which are covered with sparkly rhinestones, ribbons, pearls, stones, and brooches. These dresses can be long or short, whereas girls pageant dresses for 10 years and older should be long gowns.

When shopping for a girls pageant dress parents are usually looking for a dress that will stand out from the crowd of the other girls in order to catch the eye of the beauty pageant judges. With a custom-made girls pageant dress or baby pageant dress, the chances of another child wearing the exact same dress at a beauty pageant are very slim. However, the vogue girls pageant dresses can be very pricey. One place parents can purchase such custom made beauty pageant dresses is at ThePageantPlace.com. The site features custom made baby pageant dressing ranging in price from $250-1000. For girls ages 4-6 years old, beauty pageant dresses can range from $400 to over $1700.

When on a budget, the key is to find a dress on sale that still looks well made rather than cheap. One website that specializes in both girls pageant dresses and infant pageant dresses is Cutieclothes.com. Most of the baby pageant dresses on Cutieclothes.com are white or pink and accented with rosettes. Infant pageant dresses sold at Cutieclothes.com are available for $60-130, however, many of the infant pageant dresses can be found on sale for $30-60.

Girls pageant dresses tend to cost more in comparison to the infant pageant dresses. On Cutieclohes.com, girls pageant dresses range in price from $60-160. Again, many of these girls pageant dresses can be found on sale for the price of $30-60. The girls pageant dresses are more maturely designed when compared to the infant pageant dresses. Many of these dresses are very similar to a ballroom gown.

With the formal wear segment of beauty pageants being such a key part of the entire pageant, children and baby pageant dresses can often become the highest expense for a parent. However, there are beautiful pageant dresses available that parents can find on sale to help lessen the burden a beauty pageant may have on their wallet.
