Objectives, Theme & Requirements

Use upcycled/sustainable materials/methods to create your clothes/accessories and select ONE theme:

1. Daily wear

2. Marine

3. Festive

5. Creative

​

Upcycled materials include old clothes, cloth, toys, accessories, buttons, ribbons, ropes, towels, socks, handicraft materials and other discarded/ recycled materials. We encourage participants to be creative and use materials that are not used in the home.

​

Sustainability aims at not adding more negative impacts to the existing environment. In addition to the use of environmental-friendly materials, the impact on people also needs to be considered. For example, it is necessary to consider the impact of the materials on people's health when they are worn.

​

Elaboration on the consideration of environmental protection and sustainable development in the design/creation can be included in the submission.

​

Remark: If applicants would like to submit multiple pieces or sets of works of different themes, they should submit ONE application for EACH piece/set of works of each theme.  In other words, an applicant may submit more than one application. Nevertheless, each applicant would be given one award at most for his/her best work.
