Miss Alabama Shows Unique Style With Houndstooth ‘Roll Tide’ Dress Ahead of 2013 Miss America Competition (Photo)

Pageant dresses are typically known for their sparkles and frills, but this year’s Miss Alabama decided to show some school pride with her parade dress for the 2013 Miss America competition.

Chandler Champion, a student at Alabama, showed off some of her wardrobe ahead of this year’s competition, and the piece that stuck out the most was a custom-made University of Alabama gown. The dress, made by Ann Northington, consists of a black jumpsuit with a houndstooth skirt that spells out “Roll Tide” on the front and has a Crimson Tide 2012 National Champions emblem on the back.
