Fashion Revue Contest
Category I *
Fashion Revue participants select material and a pattern then construct a garment (or garments) that complements their wardrobe. 4-H’ers are judged on the construction of their garment (fit, techniques, notions), how well they model it (poise, posture, grooming), the suitability of their outfit (fabric, style, color), commentary, and their response to questions about construction, care, cost, etc. (Paper is not an acceptable competitive fabric choice.)
An entry form, Consumer Comparison Worksheet, fabric swatch, photo of garment, and 4-H Fashion Revue Record must be completed by all contestants!
Category II *
Participants purchase clothes or use their current wardrobe to coordinate an outfit (i.e. choose clothes that look good together and look good on you). Contestants are judged on how well the outfit complements them, their commentary, how well they model, knowledge about their consumer shopping and their response to questions about construction, care, cost, etc.
An entry form, Consumer Comparison Worksheet, and 4-H Fashion Revue Record must be completed by all contestants!
Category III
Participants select clothing garments they have purchased, or had constructed by someone other than themselves. Participants complete the entry form and Virginia 4-H Fashion Revue Record.
