The crown, designed by Anita du Plessis-Dutton of Aqua Jewels Ltd., will adorn the winner of the 2013 competition, which will be held in Auckland later this year
‘We have noticed first-hand how people are responding to the new team behind Miss Universe New Zealand, and our social media engagement, on Facebook and Instagram, has been the best in the competition’s history,’ notes national director Evana Patterson
‘It’s only the tip of the iceberg,’ says Jack Yan, general counsel for Miss Universe New Zealand. ‘Not only are we seeing the brand revitalized this year, returning to TV after 21 years’ absence, it is 30 years since Lorraine Downes became New Zealand’s only winner at Miss Universe. It’s an auspicious year, and there’s even more to come.
