It is during an exclusive event that Miss South Africa Tamaryn Green showed off her national costume and an evening dress she will be wearing at the Miss Universe pageant in December.<\/p>\n
In a few days, she will be making her way to Thailand for the beauty pageant, and thus took the opportunity to bid the country farewell.<\/p>\n
Tamaryn was presented with a beautiful necklace designed by jewelers Jack Friedman. The necklace features little raindrops and the outline of Table Mountain.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe message behind it all is that we\u2019ve overcome the drought. It was challenging, but we had to stand together as a country. We had to plan, we had to bring people together to overcome it. And that is what I think we as South African\u2019s are \u2013 we are strong, we are resilient, and we can overcome a crisis,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n
Each year contestants in the pageant bring along a gift which is then auctioned off with the proceeds going to charity. The necklace will therefore be Tamaryn’s gift for the pageant.<\/p>\n
The 67th Miss Universe pageant will take place in Thailand on 17 December 2018.<\/p>\n
