GARDEN ROUTE NEWS - Crawlers and Crowns Model Academy hosted its Eden SA and Top Model pageant in Mossel Bay.
The event, the theme of which was Alice in Wonderland, was a true extravaganza, with contestants going all-out and dressing beautifully for the theme.
The elaborate costumes meant that the event was like a pantomime.
The variety of outfits was inspiring and make-up was creative and impeccably done.
