Fashion Runway

Professional and aspiring fashion designers, artists, and creatives, introducing the Fashion Runway, a fashion design contest.

We will be hosting a weekly Fashion Runway event showcasing the designs submitted by Steemians. Each week, designers will be presented with 3 main conditions that your designs will be based on -- theme, season, and occasion.

The best designs will be compiled and presented to the community in the format of a digital fashion runway.

The purpose of this challenge is to inspire and motivate our inner fashion designer and our fellow community creatives.

Tips & Resources

Here are several tips & resources to spark inspiration for your designs:

Reminder: Every design is ultimately your own personal interpretation of the theme, so there is really no wrong design, provided that your design was inspired by the theme.
Ensure that your design(s) abide to the three given conditions -- theme, season, and occasion.
- Theme: The design(s) could be obvious or abstract.
- Season: You wouldn't want to wear a quilted down snorkel coat with a faux fur hood over a leather turtleneck sweater during summer.
- Occasion: There are outfits appropriate for certain events and scenarios. This final condition encourages the designers to push their creativity to the limit.
Determine the color palette of primary and secondary colors.
Determine the fabric contents of your designs. For example, cotton, linen, silk, wool, chiffon, organza, canvas, polyester, acrylic, blends, and more.
Remember that every article of apparel (top, bottom, outerwear, intimates, accessories, footwear, etc.) are available in numerous styles, sizes, and details.
Feel free to use the fashion croquis below for your designs.
