Gold

 

Be inspired by the Gold Section in the 2023 World of WearableArt (WOW) Competition. On this page you’ll find a set of resources we have put together to inspire and provide a jumping-off point for your 2023 entry. 

 

WOW rewards the curious, the courageous and those who are passionate enough to stand in the face of self-doubt and embrace creativity no matter the cost.

– Dame Suzie Moncrieff, WOW Founder

 

 

 

 

Note: to meet criteria for this section, designers must use only gold (can be different shades, tints and hues of the colour) materials and components to create their garment; this includes undergarments, footwear, fixings and fastenings.

Explore the limits of your imagination, tell a story through your design and create something that challenges the conventional.
