Before the official start of the show, CCA minister Tchen Yu-chiou said a few words. She was dressed in clothes developed by local designers: a suit combining the bright colors and patterns of a temple fair, that showed her radiant vigor. Tchen thanked those in attendance for braving the cold winter night and discussed the spirit behind the event and future prospects.
在服裝秀正式發表前，文建會主委陳郁秀身著設計師開發的布料與設計：一套融合廟會八家將艷麗紋彩的套裝，襯出陳郁秀奕奕的神采，她以主人身分感謝大家不畏風寒的蒞臨，也談到活動的精神與未來願景。
