Sept 28th- HK hopeful @ Miss International *translated by Al
Today, Priscilla Chik will depart to Japan to compete for Miss International on October 8. Yesterday, with the support of her fellow Miss Hong Kong winners, Priscilla attended a night gown and cultural dress fitting in TVB.
For this competition, Priscilla will travel to Tokyo by herself, without any personale coming along. Therefore, she must take care of herself. Luckily, her relatives will also travel to Tokyo to support her.
Similar to Cathy from Miss HK 02, Priscilla prepared a lot of Hong Kong cultural rich souvenir, such as, Kay Pao doll phone string, to give them to her competitors in Miss International. Priscilla told the press that she has confidence in herself, and she hopes to do her best. With the yet again horrid wardrobe provided by TVB could Priscilla still turn a few heads with her natural charm and grace? We hope so!GOOD LUCK PRISCILLA!!
