The Brother Design, Make & Model Showcase encourages students to enter their wearable and handcrafted creations which they have skilfully designed and assembled over the year into various competition classes. Judging of the garment on its own will take place prior to the Show and the modelling of the garment will be judged during the catwalk. These scores will be collated and the entrant with the highest total marks in each class will win 1st place within that class. Come and get your strut on to show off your creative fashion sense.
You can register online from the 1st of August. Entries close on the 12th of September at 5pm.
Entries will need to be delivered on Friday 12th or Monday 15th of September between 9am-4pm to the A&P Society Office at the Foodeast Hub, 4 Hanui Road, Tomoana, Hastings 4172. Late entries will not be accepted. Construction Judging will take place prior to the Show on Tuesday 16th of September.
Please note: designs are to be the work of an individual not a group. The handmade section may have relevant classes for collaborative work.
If insufficient entries are received classes may be combined.

Competitors must construct their garment independently and it may only be entered into one class
The garment must be entirely made by the competitor. No commercially made garments will be judged
All categories will be included dependent on numbers and at judge's discretion. The judges decision is final
