A truly South African costume for Mrs World Pageant3 November 2009  Chances look good for the gorgeous Mrs South Africa, Joani Johnson, to have the world at her feet at the
Mrs World Beauty Pageant when she will be showing off her exquisite national costume made of ostrich
leather and ostrich feathers in Vang Tau, Viëtnam on 22 November.
Each of the 79 participating beauties is required to wear a national costume at the Mrs World Pageant
portraying her country of origin. Joani’s quest for her truly South African costume was easy. When she
was crowned as Mrs South Africa, she wore an elegant yellow ostrich leather and ostrich feather outfit
designed by Deon Oelofse. The beauty of this dress - made of uniquely South African material - convinced
her that she need not look any further. She made up her mind: an ostrich leather and feather dress it
shall be!
Mev Wêreld-titel in haar visier met volstruis-kostuum3 November 2009 Joani Johnson se kanse is goed om die wêreld aan haar voete te hê wanneer sy aan die Mev
Wêreld-skoonheidskompetisie in Vang Tau, Viëtnam op 22 November gaan deelneem.
Elk van die 79 deelnemende skoonhede moet onder andere 'n nasionale kostuum wat hul land van herkoms
uitbeeld vertoon. Vir Joani was hierdie egter 'n maklike keuse. Pas nadat sy haar titel as Mev Suid-Afrika
in 'n volstruisleer- en –vererok van ontwerper Deon Oelofse verower het, het sy besluit dat haar nasionale
kostuum vir die Mev Wêreld-kompetisie beslis óók van volstruisleer – en –vere móét wees.
