Mothers and Daughters

The Supa Stylistics annual Mother and Daughter pageant has become an institution. In recent times, it has become perhaps the only show at the National Cultural Centre (NCC) that still plays to a full house each year.

Ingrid Fung and her daughter Sulan, as well as the other founders of the pageant must be justly proud of how it has turned out as it is now no doubt worth all of the hard work that goes into it. It attracts mother and daughter pairs from all strata of society, though it is obvious sometimes that the daughters have twisted their mothers’ hands and hearts in order to get their cooperation. If nothing else, this demonstrates the bond between mother and daughter, which is made even more visible by their synchronized steps across the NCC stage.
