SHOE MAKERS/ DESIGNERS
Put Your Sole in the Spotlight!
Can you craft magic from leather, soles, and stitches?
From luxury heels to bold sneakers, bespoke slippers to urban streetwear kicks NYFEW #ProjectMakeMe is calling all visionary shoe designers and makers to step into the arena and walk their way to ₦25,000,000!
Here’s what you’ll be doing in the house:
- Footwear Design & Production Challenges:
Transform raw materials into stunning, wearable art. You’ll be tasked with designing and producing footwear that complements team fashion themes and stands out on its own.
- Style Integration with Fashion Teams:
Collaborate closely with fashion designers, stylists, and models to ensure your footwear completes the look and enhances the runway story. Your ability to blend creativity with functionality is key.
- Innovation Under Pressure:
Work with limited materials, tight deadlines, and surprise twists. Whether it’s redesigning traditional footwear with a modern twist or creating high-fashion shoes from unconventional items—you’ll be pushed beyond your comfort zone.
- Weekly Presentations at Fashion Court:
Showcase your shoes alongside team creations every Wednesday. Jurors will evaluate your craftsmanship, originality, and how well your footwear ties into the overall fashion narrative.
- Mentorship & Skill-building Workshops:
Gain insider knowledge from master cobblers, luxury shoe designers, and branding experts. Learn about materials, market trends, sustainability, and business strategies.
- Reality TV Moments & Creative Clashes:
Living in the house means dealing with real-time pressure, conflicting visions, and team dynamics. Expect drama, growth, and unforgettable lessons.
- Saturday Solo Presentations:
Each week wraps with your individual design being judged. Will your pair walk you into the next round or walk you out?
Your hands can craft dreams, your vision can walk the world. This is your moment.
