We’re thrilled to invite designers of all experience levels to participate in the Trashion Show, our flagship fundraiser and community event that celebrates creativity, sustainability, solidarity, and fashion. Whether you’re a seasoned pro, a first-time designer, or a group of friends with a wild hair; this is your opportunity to create stunning pieces using upcycled and recycled materials while enjoying a fun, community-centered atmosphere.

This year’s show take place on May 16th. We welcome solo designers, as well as teams, to submit their works. To participate, simply complete the Intent to Submit Form by April 3rd, 2026. This form is gauge interest; a more in-depth, final submission form will go out to submitted designers in mid-April. Designers’ final submissions will be due May 6th.

Designers will compete for a variety of exciting prizes like Judges Choice, Peoples Choice, Most Recycled, And more. This event is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your work, express yourself, and be part of our dynamic, eco-conscious community.

Designers are welcome to complete as many design intents as they feel inspired to make. However, we are limiting final design submissions in two ways. Designers may submit two final designs and we will have a cap of 13 total designs walking. If we have more than 13 design intents, designers will be asked to select which design they want to show. In the unlikely event that we still have over 13 at that point, our head judge will make the final call which designs will move forward.

We welcome designers of all ages! However, since this is a 21+ event any designer that is not of age cannot attend the show and must send a representative instead.

Judging and dress rehearsal will occur the evening of May 15th at 5 pm.

If you're ready to show off your talent and help raise awareness for sustainable fashion, we can't wait to see what you’ll create. To apply, simply fill out the form by the deadline of April 3rd.

We look forward to seeing you at the show!
