Published on by Feltmakers Ireland

The World of WearableArt (WOW) Competition celebrates the fusion of art, design, fashion, and performance. It is an opportunity to be seen on the world stage and be part of a global design community. The competition encourages designers worldwide to create extraordinary and innovative wearable artworks.

For over 35 years, finalists’ wonderful works of art have come to life in the spectacular annual WOW Show, held in Wellington, New Zealand – attracting delighted audiences of around 60,000 people.

Each year, there are six themes to inspire makers. There are three recurring themes: Aotearoa, Avant-Garde, and Open. There are also three unique themes; this year, they are the following: Crazy Curiosities of the Creature Carnival, Natural World, and Geometric Abstraction.

There is an exciting archive of past winners on the website – https://www.worldofwearableart.com/explore/wearableart-archive
