2026 Theme: A Color Story
This year's theme invites you to explore the power of color and the stories it can tell.
A Color Story is all about using color intentionally, creatively, and expressively. Whether you're drawn to bold statement shades, soft tonal palettes, dramatic contrasts, or a single color from head to toe, we encourage you to think about how color can help tell the story behind your handmade look.
Need some inspiration? Consider:
- A monochromatic outfit featuring varying shades and textures of the same color
- A garment inspired by your favorite artwork, landscape, season, or destination
- Unexpected color combinations that showcase your personal style
- A color palette that reflects a mood, memory, or emotion
- Prints, patterns, and color blocking that create visual impact
- Colors that represent your heritage, hobbies, or creative influences
- A favorite fabric whose colors inspired an entire outfit
Your interpretation can be as literal or as abstract as you'd like. There is no right or wrong way to participate. The goal is simply to celebrate creativity, craftsmanship, and the unique perspective that every maker brings to their work.
Whether you're wearing a rainbow of colors or a perfectly curated palette, we can't wait to see the story you choose to tell.
