Description
Miss Oregon contestants compete onstage dressed in formal evening gowns. One woman is posing at the front of the stage; she is dressed in a long, flared gown, and wears full-length white gloves and high heels. A ribbon displaying the number 6 is attached to her dress at her waist line. Near the back of the stage stand three contestants dressed in similar attire with ribbons that display the numbers 1, 3, and 5. A man wearing a suit and bow tie stands behind a microphone. In the background a balcony is filled with spectators. On the bottom level are doors below a sign that reads "EXIT". Mounted floor lights are visible on the front of the stage.
