If you have an idea for the Costume-Con 26 Future Fashion Folio, sketch it out! DO NOT worry that you are not a brilliant fashion artist.

The jury for the Folio is NOT judging artistic talent -- they are looking at the design concepts.

We have had crayon drawings from a 4-year-old published, and one of those designs was made and modelled in the fashion show.

SO -- scribble, daub, sketch, doodle, twist string into the right shape and photocopy it, but get your design idea onto paper (or into a file) and submit it!

You won't be sorry!

Pardon me for boasting...

My Egyptian Barrista tied for the Most Accurate Rendition by a Non-Designer award in the Costume-Con 24 Future Fashion Show. This is one of only three awards given at the show (the others being Most Accurate Rendition by Designer and Best Overall Workmanship).

It was wildly popular and I didn't look fat. :-)

Photos and further convention reports later.
