Miss Universe aspirants in fashion parade

In contrast to the Miss Botswana fashion show, however, the Mos Syd Entertainment-organised event was badly planned, starting a few minutes after 1pm, despite advertising scheduling the event for 9am.

Further, despite the 12 girls' best efforts, the show decidedly lacked glamour, and it is questionable whether it was able to serve part of its purpose of promoting, and luring people to get tickets for, the beauty pageant's finale, to be held at the Gaborone International Convention Centre (GICC) on July 23.
