Design Team Guidelines:

Your Design Team may consist of up to 7 members – with at least one member from each of the following categories:

• Design or Architectural Firm – up to 4 members – any employee of the firm.
• Team can pair up with interior designers from outside their company if needed.
• Manufacturer Representative
• Fashion Design Student
• Interior Design Student

Each team needs to designate one member as Team Captain and one member to be your model.  Keep in mind the model will need to attend hair & makeup meetings, dress rehearsals and regular team meetings.  The team captain will receive all email notices, deadline reminders etc.  Each team member receives one ticket for entry into the event.  Any changes to the team need to be pre-approved by the Fashion Remix Committee (FRC).  If there are issues your team cannot resolve, please contact FRC.

 

Manufacturer Guidelines:

The team is allowed to use any product/material supplied by the manufacturer within reasonable dollar value or quantity limitations that may be imposed by the manufacturer.  But please keep in mind that the intent of the event is to showcase your product by using it in a unique and creative way.  The manufacturer may contribute to the design process, but should not dictate a design to accommodate specific materials.  If a vendor represents more than one manufacturer, the team must choose one product line they will be using for their fashion and notify the FRC within 2 weeks after Kick-Off Party.  Fabrication of the materials into a garment is the responsibility of the entire team.  We encourage your team to try to sew and assemble your creation using your own methods.  However, you are allowed to have an outside help assembling your garment at your team’s own expense.  Some materials are less conducive to becoming wearable fashion without other “connective” pieces.  Any questions regarding supporting materials, please contact FRC.  Excessive or inappropriate use of supporting materials will be considered during the judging process.

Product Guidelines:

• Use only running line materials
• Give your vendor ample notice when requesting materials.  Check with vendor for lead times.
• Choose materials in conjunction with your product rep to find out what their manufacturer is willing to provide.
• Remember the Manufacturer is not only donating time and money in materials to your design; they are also donating money to sponsor this event.
• Please be sure to consult your vendor on limitations in quantities of products, parts, materials, budgets, etc.  PRIOR to planning your outfit.
