The 3rd Annual celebration of the “Artistry of Balloon Fashion,” will take place on Tuesday Evening August 10th, 2010 in the Showroom, Sam’s Town LIVE. Invited Master Designers will each present three fashion creations for your viewing. Additional talented designers will each create two designs for presentation in the Designer’s Showcase.

In 2010, we will add new opportunities for dress designers to show their talent and creativity. In addition to the competition for “Top Fashion Designer,” we have added a new competition, “Aspiring Fashion Designer,” for those
who are 18 years of age or younger. Once again we will have the “Debut Fashion Designer” category giving recognition to those designers who have not as yet presented their ideas and fashion creations to the Industry.

This year’s competition will be divided into two categories: Fashions made from inflated balloons and those made from un-inflated balloons. Each creation may be accessorized,. however, the fashion must be made of at least 90% balloon product. .
While the Master and Showcase Designers present at the show by invitation, anyone is welcome to be a part of the competitions and “First Timers Debut Fashion Designer” group.

Entry into the Fashion Show is simple. Just complete the questionnaire below and email it to us before July 1st, 2010. There is NO entry fee to enter the competitions. The only requirements to enter the show is that you must have a registration to either Diamond Jam or Summer Balloon Camp, design a fashion in good taste and non-offensive to a general audience and arrange for your own product. For some of this years events, supporting Manufacturers will offer product if requested.

In 2009 the Balloon Couture Fashion Show received international coverage on the NBC Today Show. It has created interest from balloonists around the world and in 2010 we expect several new designers to be joining the show. The Today Show coverage has made the general public aware of the artistry involved in creating Fashions from balloons. The show raised the awareness, for the public, of the talents and creativity that exists in our industry. We have already started working on coverage for the 2010 show and will have television and fashion magazine coverage at the show.
