All outfits will be judged on a scale of 1-5 in these six categories:
Technique/Construction: How did the designer create the garment? Is the construction high quality and professional looking? Was the technique a good fit for the materials? Is there good craftsmanship?
Creativity: Is the style interesting and innovative? Have you seen lots of clothes like this before? Did the designer look at the materials in a new way?
Presentation: How is the outfit styled? Does everything look good together? Was it well thought out? Were all elements of the outfit considered?
Difficulty: How challenging was this outfit to create? How much time did it take? What kind of effort was made?
Materials Use: Are all of the main materials repurposed from items that would otherwise be discarded? Do the materials give you ideas for new ways to use items for a new life? Are the materials reused safely and without creating new trash? Are the materials interesting and have they been used in innovative ways? The materials should not be new; they should be upcycled/repurposed.
Reuse: Please ensure the outfit is sturdy enough to be used again, keeping fiber out of the landfill.
