After all, you're up against 32 contestants, each with an entrance more gimmicky than the next, all while trying to catch the eye of said bachelor, or as in this case, a certain Matt James.

But sometimes, there are some contestants who just prefer to do it the old-fashioned way, show up in a beautiful gown and let their personality do all the work. And no, you don't always need an over-the-top entrance to win a rose.
