We are always looking for new designers to create unique entries for Compassion Through Fashion. No experience required – our designers come from all walks of life and are just as unique as the entries they create – local artists, creators, and the fashionably inclined; members of community groups, churches, and clubs; non-profit organizations, schools, businesses, and families.
WHO IS ELIGIBLE:
Any individual who wishes to create a fun, inventive, original fashion ensemble using recyclable materials. Individuals may represent themselves, a local business, organization, or facility.
HOW TO ENTER:
RULES
Fashions must be wearable and durable enough to last through the fashion show. Creations should strive to be fashionable, well made and in good taste. All fashions must be non-vulgar, harmless and must cover all private body parts. The outfit must be worn by a model on a runway and should not be a hazard. The model must be able to ascend and descend stairs while wearing the entry. Store bought shoes are allowed. Excluded Materials: ABSOLUTELY No Glitter Allowed
