UNDUK NGADAU Favorite On Facebook

My friend, Mr. David Chong of David Aramitii Video & Photography launched a Facebook page to select the Favorite Miss UNDUK NGADAU in conjunction with the Pesta Kaamatan (Harvest Festival) held every year, on the 30th and 31st of May. After the voting was closed at approximately 9:00 am, Ms. Ritchel Andreas representing the Ranau District, won the title with the votes of 3,035. Congratulation to Ms. Ritchel.

Sodop Unduk Ngadau

I took these photos of the UNDUK NGADAU contestants doing their catwalk in modern evening dress and 7 of them are donning the creative ethnic evening dress to showcase the intricate work of the fashion designer in incorporating the spirit of the traditional dress of the Kadazandusun into a beautiful & stunning evening dress. I would like to apologize to Ms. Banggi because I was busy looking the other way when she's doing her catwalk, therefore I was not able to take her photo. :)
