Judging Criteria
Work will be judged on professional quality (craftsmanship), originality and aesthetics (style, design).
Judges score all portfolio/shop items submitted as a whole, and not just a single piece. Due to the various types of fashion-related items we accept in this category, entries are not scored against one another. Scores are based on the individual skill, craftsmanship and creativity of each designer/creator, based on the form(s) they’re using (apparel, accessories, armor, etc).
