August is d-day for our Avant Garde dress 2013 contestants. 2nd year design students from DAF, CTCFD, Elizabeth Galloway, CPUT, Fedisa and Northlink will be submitting their submissions on 16 August 2013 and we can’t wait to see their ideas. We will be posting our top 10 finalists here on 31 August after our 1st round of judging so keep an eye out for that.
Here is a snippet from the last two years of the Avant Garde dress competition.
[youtube_sc url=”http://youtu.be/rvDZ_HGkMnU” title=”Avant%20Garde%20dress%202013%20teaser%20{RESILIENCE}”]The theme this year is ‘RESILIENCE’ and the students were asked to upcycle a look according to this theme and were free to interpret the theme as they wish.
Sponsors of this year’s competition are once again Pick n Pay and The Body Shop and partners of the project this year are Cape Town Fashion Council and vida e caffè. We are grateful and lucky to have such awesome sponsors for the 3rd year in a row.
Designers we look forward to seeing your work on the 16th!
