A new Post "India:‘Design for your icon’ theme of Let’s Design, Season 4" was written on the December 27, 2011 at 3:40 pm on "Textile Global - Textile and Fashion News".
Cotton Council International (CCI) announces the Fourth Edition of its
fashion design contest – Let’s Design. This pan-India
initiative gives aspiring designers an opportunity to showcase their
talent and creativity with the country’s most important textile
fibre and the backbone of Indian fashion – cotton. The theme for
this season – ‘Design for your icon’ – is all
about celebrating those who have inspired us. Design hopefuls must
submit a sketch of an original design for their icon along with a
concept note. Semifinalists will be invited to Delhi to present their
design portfolio to the judges for further consideration. The twelve
finalists will remain in Delhi at a “Reality House†and
compete in a series of challenges specially designed to highlight the
many facets of cotton.
“We’re proud and excited to be heading into our fourth
season of Let’s Design†, said Ms. Agnieszka Fijol, CCI
Representative (Programme Head – India), “in season four
we’re featuring a bigger fabric selection than ever before to
truly show the possibilities in cotton and challenge the stereotypes.
Contestants can expect to have their creativity pushed to the limits
and viewers will be amazed at what is possible in cotton.â€
An eminent jury comprising of leading names from creative, design and
fashion fraternity will handpick contestants from across the country
to compete for the grand prize in the reality series ‘Let’s
Design’, which will air on the Zoom entertainment channel.
A number of activities have been scheduled at premier design
institutes throughout the country, including Kolkata, Hyderabad,
Bengaluru, Pune and Ahmedabad, where eminent city-based designers will
visit as guest lecturers and conduct discussions on the importance,
relevance, benefits and the future of cotton in Indian fashion. At
select locations designers will exhibit their work in cotton and speak
about their design process.
Speaking on the occasion Designer Karunesh Vohra said Over the years
CCI has done a fabulous job of promoting this wonderful fiber, the
efforts in India have been innovative & exciting .Understanding the
pulse of the country & creating the huge “lets Designâ€
property has been brilliant. I have been fortunate to be involved with
the CCI effort and my experience with them as a jury member at the
lets design Bangalore chapter has been enjoyable & exciting.
