It has provided a great platform for talented and creative young designers to showcase their skills and supported by the industry for 38 years. Beyond that, participants can also engage in a rich exchange of ideas, challenge their boundaries, and stimulate more creative sparks.
Open to emerging designers worldwide, 2024 TFDA competition invites submissions until June 30. In mid-July, 12 outstanding designers will be selected by international experts to enter the finals. The finalists will receive free air tickets and accommodation in Taiwan to participate in a runway show and relevant fashion activities. There are no restrictions on the theme of the competition, giving participants plenty of freedom to observe and approach their designs from various aspects, integrating elements such as CREATIVITY, SUSTAINABILITY, FUNCTION and PERFORMANCE.
