Anonymous asked: I'm not a designer but I am with East End Fashion Magazine and would love to know how we might come to cover this event. There isn't much information online so I hope you could connect me with someone. Thank you! - Abby Gleason

Congratulations & Practice

Congratulations to all those designers who were chosen. For those who weren’t, please reapply next year. We had to make a lot of tough decisions. Later on I will try to post some highlights from some of the really great portfolio we received.

But down to business:

All chosen LG designers must attend practice tonight in Danforth from 10pm to 12am.

Bring your sketches!

Dear “deborahmeliaHH121406”

I’m not sure anyone on the board has yahoo messenger…

Email us. It is by far the best/fastest way to reach us. We are glued to our cell phones.

Final Decisions

Thank you for all your submissions, everyone who sent in a portfolio should have received an email today. If you did not, please let us know. 
It should take us about a week to reach out final decision.

Everybody’s Portfolios Should Now Be In

The portfolios are looking great. We will get right down to judging them. Stay tunned for more info!

IMPORTANT:

If you uploaded a portfolio named “Lunar Gala.pdf” it did not upload correctly.

Please try it again

Date Extended

Hey everybody.

I wanted to let you know that because of a great deal of confusion, we have extended the portfolio deadline until the 22nd. 

Because of this, it is only fair that if you have turned in a portfolio already, you may use this week to edit them and make them better. They will be judged after the new deadline. 

also:

please keep your file sizes small

and

if there is more than one copy of your portfolio on the site, please delete all but one. There should be a trash can icon at the top of the web page.

There should be more portfolios!

At midnight, send in what you got, even if it’s not quite done. 

In choosing, we look at all aspects of a portfolio.

None will be turned down without serious consideration.

TODAY IS THE DAY

incase you’ve forgotten:

upload your portfolio to the website below BEFORE MIDNIGHT on OCT 15th.
