Fifth Fashion Creator

Fifth Fashion Creator: International Fashion Design Competition

Sponsored by Hassun Textile and Fashion Research Center

For four seasons, Fashion Creator as a national event in the field of textile, clothing, and fashion has tried to fill the void of theoretical foundations in Iranian-Islamic fashion and modest clothing. The live hybrid fashion competition along with the textile B2B platform made it possible for experts, researchers, and avid fashion enthusiasts from all over the country to gather for the same cause.

Each season of Fashion Creator focuses on a specific area of the apparel industry, so the winning designs can later be utilized in large-scale production. During the two-day event, Fashion Creator holds specialized workshops to provide the opportunity to share the latest research achievements and hands-on experience.

This year, on its second international version, following 4 successful national competitions, Fashion Creator is inviting the international audience to participate in the upcoming hybrid event, hosted by the faculty of Fashion and Textile Design, Islamic Azad University-Tehran South branch in December 2024, to further its cause. The theme for this year is “Cypress” and the participants create an attire that aligns with the aesthetic and cultural expectations of the society.

There are two categories in the competition; fashion design, and textile design. Contestants participate individually or in a team consisting of a maximum of 3 participants. Each person/team requires a presentation board (mood board) and a one-page designer’s statement. By following the guidelines for entries, participants will have a portfolio-quality piece. The competition will be judged by academic and industry professionals who will provide a critique for each individual/group based on a comparative system.

The competition is free of charge and the contestants choose and provide the fabrics and accessories based on their designs. The participants who cannot be present on-site will participate virtually in the live event at the same time as the in-person participants.

Following the participant registration, there will be an online Q&A session to further explain the process of the competition and answer any possible questions.
