Command the floor like a ray of sunlight piercing through the clouds.

Every element of your attire should heighten the sense of velocity and brilliance as you bring precision and fire to the floor.

Every detail should exude confidence and magnetic seduction, leaving the room scorched. But, the catch is you must sell sex with your clothes on; we are looking for who is sexy from head to toe.

Golden or radiant details should frame the body like light bouncing across sculpted form.
• Judges Seek: Tone, proportion, symmetry, and presentation as a luminous package. Absolutely no nudity meaning we should not be seeing their buttocks, private areas, and breasts (Male or Female), if you do the competitor will be chopped and disqualified from the competition.
