...this is really mana. You know, I feel the mana when I go out there, and I feel like yeah, I'm representing my island in South Pacific, and while all the others are doing the same as well. So, much respect!
– Fijian-born musician Daren Kamali on performing for Style Pasifika
One of the more flamboyant sections of Pasifika 2000 is the fa’afafine section of Pasifika. It would not be Pasifika without its girls!
– Stephanie Tauevihi introduces the fa'afafine section of the show
With Pasifika, it's fashion with a twist. We're looking back in the past, it's so special. It's this part of the world. No other part of the world is like New Zealand, and the fashion that you'll see on the stage tonight is just so exceptional.
– Judge and designer Francis Hooper on Style Pasifika's unique fashions, at the end of this special
A new millennium welcomes in the eighth year of Style Pasifika. Over one hundred designers and two hundred performers celebrate through song, dance and design, the pride and excellence unique to all people of the Pacific. Mana pasifika, together as one, Style Pasifika.
