Interested in being a participant?

Designers of all ages will have the opportunity to model their fashions made out of repurposed materials like old fabrics, vintage clothing from thrift stores, plastics, and other single use materials.

2026 Theme:

Step into a storybook world. This year’s Fantasy theme focuses on whimsy and fairytale-inspired design, where recycled materials are transformed into imaginative pieces. Think of soft textures, layered details, and looks that feel magical without being overdone! Each design should capture a sense of whimsy and creativity, bringing simple materials to life in unexpected ways.

Thank you to our sponsors!

IF DESIGNERS DO NOT WISH TO MODEL THEIR OUTFIT, THEY ARE WELCOME TO HAVE A STAND IN MODEL PARTICIPATE.
