While the &#8216;Best&#8217; awards recognise the design, craftsmanship, or creativity of a particular element, such as costume, swimwear, or evening wear the &#8216;Best in&#8217; awards honour how confidently and gracefully the delegate presented that element on stage. It\u2019s a balance between the art and the performance, the creation itself, and the way it\u2019s brought to life before the judges and the audience.
