| Future Fashion design contest and their folios have actively been
in existence since the early 1970's. From their Sci-Fi roots they have
expanded into the mainstreams of costume design. This site
will strive to bring together a group of folk that have participated as
designers, directors, artists, copy editors, organizers and
judges.... (i.e. everything under the sun related to these
contests.) We're here to share our years of experience and
present some tips so you can join in the fun, painlessly.

What is this whole Future Fashion Design
thing?
We present a quick summary here. (All the intro here.)
Click on the heading links of
each for more
information.
It's a chance for people to put their visions of future clothing
fashions onto paper. It's a chance for you to participate in this
fun, creative process.
It's the collection of winning designs from a future fashion contest...
but it is also a wonderful look at many alternative visions of the
future. Step away from the present, image tomorrow...
Many times the process doesn't stop with the future folio's
publication. The next step is the Future Fashion Show where some of
the designs are brought to life in fabric.
(A step by step introduction of the whole process <here>.)
