Product Overview

By exploring the dazzling history of the Miss Australia Quest and the emergence of our vibrant fashion industry, The Glamour Game reveals how Australia has moved from its colonial past to a strong and distinctive national identity. This exciting series uses never-before-seen archival footage, intimate stories from those who were there and follows young hopefuls competing for a coveted place in today's beauty pageants and fashion world. This two-part series focuses on two aspects of the world of glamour and fashion – 'The Pageant' (Episode1) and 'The Parade' (Episode 2). Each program tells its story within an historical context, linking the past and the present in the development of both beauty pageants and a distinctively Australian style in the fashion industry.
