Enter Our Student & Recent Graduates Design Project

You may remember back in 2013, we held our first design competition. We were flooded with absolutely amazing entries; so much so that we couldn't pick just one, and ended up choosing 3 winners and creating a mini-collection.

Since then, Eva has gone on to create her own brand, and Pippa worked on our design team for several months after graduation.

We have launched a new design competition for a mini-collection in SS'16.

The 3 winners will see their design concepts taken through to final production and a photoshoot, with a limited release of 30 sets each.

Our competition is open for to all fashion undergraduates and recent graduates, with a deadline of the 13th of March 2015.

We will be creating a shortlist of 10 entries, which we feel best suit our brand, and encourage our fans to vote on facebook to help us select the final winners!

THE BRIEF

The year’s design competition takes its theme from Stylesight's SS'16 Trend Forecast – ‘Sartorial’. This trend is perfect for the Playful Promises customer with it's mix of grown up girl with dark detailing. Think pretty bondage, flowers and restraints, delicate embroidered lace and harder textured wet look fabrics.

The winning collection will sit under the title ‘Future Pin-ups’ reflecting that this range
features designs that have the feel of being contemporary classics.

Feel free to use the Stylesight Trend Forecast (see shots below) as a starting point but also to let your own creative processes interpret the meaning of ‘Sartorial’. We love print design and are able to digitally print any winning designs, so feel free to submit any print design as part of your entry.
