Yeah, absolutely! If you’re an AI fashion aficionado using the latest tools, this competition is for you. Just keep in mind, we’ve got some guidelines in place to ensure a consistent and visually stunning outcome, elevating your AI creations to Vogue-level standards. 

The final deadline to apply for the competition is 15 April 2023 (apply here)

You will be notified individually via email on a case-by-case basis.

The voting process will consist of two rounds. In the first round, the collections will be evaluated by your followers, viewers, and the wider community through online voting.

The top 10 collections from the first round will then proceed to the second round, where they will be judged by a panel of esteemed industry experts on the AI Fashion Week jury. 

The top 3 winners as selected by the jury will be supported by our Fashion/Tech incubator in partnership with The Revolve Group. Their collections will be brought to life through production and sold online. 

We are asking for a minimum of 15 images (and max of 30) – Please include at least 5 detail shots (bags, shoes, accessories..) And a big plus if you also add images for your front row, backstage and street style before the show.

We aim to deliver Vogue-quality results with the collections, which is why we’ve established guidelines to ensure consistency in designs, shows, and models.

No, you’re not obligated to generate additional images, but it would be advantageous for you to do so. By creating a comprehensive representation of your collection, which includes not just the runway looks but also the backstage, front row, and street style, you will provide a more complete picture of your vision and increase your chances of being selected for the next round. So, consider what your collection would look like in different settings and showcase it accordingly. 

You have carte blanche on creativity, but it is crucial to keep in mind that the collections will be prêt-à-porter and not Haute-couture, because the aim of the competition is to facilitate the reproduction and sale of your collection ! it is also important to take current trends into consideration. 

Absolutely! You have complete creative control over your show’s production design. Whether it’s set in an abstract, fantastical world or a more realistic location, as long as there’s a catwalk visible in the image, the possibilities are endless. Just be sure to maintain consistency throughout all your images to give the impression of a cohesive show. 

We’re working hard to ensure the competition is as fair as possible for all contestants, and we’re rolling out a voting system via the AIFW app to prevent any fraudulent activities. To cast your vote, each person will have a total of 2 votes to give to their top picks.
