ARTIST INFORMATION

WEARABLE FULL-BODY ENSEMBLE ARTWORK INFORMATION

Artwork dimensions can be listed as approximate if this artwork has not yet been created. 

Indicate if there are limitations with your artwork. Designs worn on live models in the runway portion of the event must be able to maneuver up and down stairs, endure walking short distances, and turn while worn. Not all submissions will be chosen for inclusion.

All finalists will be featured in the live-streamed extravaganza on October 31 and in a pop-up exhibition at OMA November 1–8. 

At least one full-length image of the front of the artwork is required.

Additional views are highly recommended including:

> detail image(s) of the artwork

Files up to 2MB in JPG or PDF format can be submitted. Include up to five attachments (photographs, renderings, sketches, or other similar supporting 2D design materials. Submission does not guarantee inclusion. Notification of selection will be sent on September 23.

When determining the market value for your artwork, please consider that bidding will start at one-third of the stated market value for the artwork, and the artist will receive 40% of the proceeds of successful sales. For example, artwork with a market value of $900 would have an opening bid of $300. If it sold at $300, the artist would receive $120. While we hope all artwork sells, and that it does so at market value or higher, there are no guarantees.
