Dance Inspires Fashion in London
The T-Mobile Big Dance 2010 has launched a search to find the capital’s hottest young designers who love dance.
Whether your inspiration is fiery salsa shapes, luxurious Bollywood looks or real dancers’ streetwear, budding designers are asked to send in a sample of three designs inspired by dance. Whether you design costume for dance or streetwear with a dance twist, this is an ideal opportunity to get your work noticed.
The final selection will showcase their work at an exclusive City Hall exhibition and attend a unique event for industry insiders from both the dance and fashion worlds.
How to Enter: To enter, please submit 3 sample designs scanned in at high resolution (minimum 300dpi). When submitting please provide your name, contact details and a short description of the thinking behind your designs. This should be no longer than 100 words. Do remember that designs and associated content are intended for a wide-viewing audience. Email them to fashioncompetition@bigdance2010.com
Deadline for entries: 5pm on 22 August 2010 http://www.bigdance2010.com/event_dance_inspires_fashion.php Check terms and conditions
