Shop your Wardrobe Competition

Do you love wearing your favourite clothes again and again? Or are you a serial shopper who needs some motivation to shop from your own wardrobe?

We are challenging residents of Barnsley, Doncaster and Rotherham to create 3 different outfits, all based around 1 piece of clothing you already own. It could be your favourite pair of jeans dressed up and down, that pair of shoes that just goes with everything, or if you want a challenge, you could try styling something that you barely ever wear!

 

To enter:

 

  1. ·         Choose 1 piece of clothing to style, and create 3 different outfits featuring this item.

  2. ·         Photograph the outfits, either on yourself or laid out.

  3. ·         Send the photos to bdr.events@biffa.co.uk.
    Please include your area (Barnsley, Doncaster or Rotherham), and a few sentences about the piece of clothing you have chosen to style.

  4. The entry must be three different outfits, all containing the one chosen piece of clothing. The entry must contain a description of which item you have chosen to incorporate into the three outfits.

If the clothing is laid out it must be done clearly so it can be viewed as a cohesive outfit. The explanation can be in photo captions, spoken over a video, or written in an email.
