FASHION DESIGN OF THE YEAR

The Fashion Design of the Year award represents the pioneering spirit at the heart of fashion. We want to see trend-setting creations and collections that will make and break all the rules.

Show us the best at redesigning the landscape of fashion. Offer what inspires you most, because that is what we recognize above all else - the creative spark that leads to a shining accomplishment. Fashion is more than clothing - it's wearable art.

We are proud to recognize the peak achievement of fashion designers from all over the world - from regal, classic collections to the most daring of avant-garde. Submit your best work now.

* You may submit an entry into multiple categories at the same time. The first Category will be charged as per the original submission fee. Additional categories (2 or more) will be charged as such.

Rather than increasing the fee for each entry, fees are only charged in order to cover administrative costs like printing, mailing and data organization. For this reason, each participant is charged a flat $30 administration fee. When all participants pay the same low fee, those submitting more than one entry will actually pay less than if fees were on a sliding scale.

PROJECT DATE
Work submitted must have been created within the last 5 years.
