Step 2: Select a secondary model for this contest. You do not have to upload that model.

Step 3: Create one outfit for each model. Each outfit will represent opposite personalities. You can do whatever personalities you want, get creative.(You are not just limited to the personalities in the game)

Step 4: Take photos of your models in their outfits on the runway I have provided. Once you upload the pictures, only post them here if you have modified them to fit the page. If not, post a link to the picture. Remember, you can modify the runway in any way.
(Runway Link: http://www.thesims3.com/assetDetail.html?assetId=909738).




This week's contest will end on August 18th, so begin working on your designs today.

THIS WEEKS CONTEST ENDS AUGUST 18TH




How to Win:
This competition will be similar to the tv show project runway. Every week there will be a simdesign competition, and one simdesigner will be eliminated. This will happen until there are only 3 simdesigners left. They will create a collection of 5 outfits each, and photos of their collection will be posted. People from the sim community will vote for the winner. 1 week after the photos of the simdesigners collections were posted, i will count the votes and the winner will be crowned.

Meshes and Models:
You can use any clothing mesh found in the sims3 base game, sims 3 store, or custom content sites. If you use a clothing mesh from a custom content site for an entry, post the link to the site along with it.If you enter, you will only have to make one sim, which will be your model(female). The rest of the competition is about designing clothes. Your model doesn't effect how you do in the competition.

I hope you guys have fun with this!

    I have no clothes designing experience, but I'd love to join in order to add some diversity to the competition (boring, married guy and new dad surrounded by hip fashion designers). What do you say?

    There aren't really any specific requirements. If there are too many people that want to join, I'll go through your studios to help narrow it down.

    I'd really like to join, but it feels like there's no chance of getting anywhere in a competition like this unless you wanna install CC and I'm a bit afraid of doing that, since my game has been working weirdly lately. It's been really slow and I can't use mods anymore?

    I'll join if you know if downloading CC clothes won't make it slower?

    It sounds interesting. Are we given models like the show that we have to use for all of the outfits?

    I know the feeling... I can do decent outfits but I'm more of a builder and I am not so great at doing anything beside the outfit. LOL I wish I could sim better there would be a lot of sims I would make from some of my fave shows. :D

    From what Erion said, we don't HAVE to use CC if we don't want to. We can stick with clothing from the base game and use create a style to make it our own.

    As others have said, I'm not really much of a clothing sims maker - though I do enjoy playing around with the building tools. But I think this competition would be a fund way to experiment with create a sim and create a style, so I'm hoping to learn something by participating.

    As far as getting enough simmers to join, I think something like this can take time. Simmers may not be interested in joining until after they have seen what the challenges are like and they realize that could actually have a shot at competing. I think we need to do a pilot project and draw up interest. Then in "Season 2" I think that things will really take off.

    *BTW, I like the idea of Erion upload a model to the Exchange for us to use each week and to design an outfit for according to the weekly challenge. Or better yet, we could all agree to choose the same random sim upload and create a challenge around that Sim (perhaps one challenge would be a make-over week for a awful looking Sim on the exchange).

    You can make your own model, but you have to use the same one throughout the competition unless you win a challenge. If you win a challenge, you can swap models

    1.You don't have to use CC.
    2. I download tons of CC and I haven't noticed anything not working in game. Plus, if it does do something to your game, all you have to do is delete the file.

    Haha I don't think we're going to have a heidi klum, unless someone makes a really really realistic version of her.
