Calling all artists, models and photographers, want to be part of Rebecca Minkoff’s Spring 2014 collection? Here’s how:
Rebecca Minkoff’s Spring 2014 collection is set to debut at New York Fashion Week in September. To create awareness for the collection, Minkoff has partnered with Tumblr and Nordstrom to create the first-ever Tumblr Talent Discovery Contest. The contest invites artists, models and photographers to take part in a t-shirt and tote campaign with Nordstrom.
Minkoff invites artists to design a graphic t-shirt and canvas tote. All designs should represent strong and feminine women in a collage, graphic, illustration or print format. The winning artist’s designs will be featured in Minkoff’s Spring 2014 collection during New York Fashion Week, the designs will be sold in Nordstrom and online on Nordstrom.com and RebeccaMinkoff.com the same day as the runway show and the artist will be rewarded with $5,000.
If you want to be the face of the t-shirt and tote campaign, Minkoff asks models to submit 5 professional and high-resolution photos. The winner will receive $5,000 as well as, be given the opportunity to star in Rebecca Minkoff’s and Nordstrom’s nationwide t-shirt and tote campaign.
If you prefer to stand behind the lens, Minkoff invites you to submit five original, high-resolution images from your portfolio that represent you as a photographer. The winning photographer will receive $5,000 and be hired to shoot the Minkoff x Nordstrom campaign.
So, whether you are a designer, a model or a photographer submit your images in JPEG format to tumblr@rebccaminkof.com by July 25, 2012, at 3p.m. Submissions will be judged by Rebecca Minkoff, David Karp (Founder/CEO of Tumblr) and Jeffrey Kalinksy (Vice President of Designer Merchandising for Nordstrom). The judges will announce the winners on July 30. 2013.
Also, don’t forget to show off your submissions on Tumblr with the tag RMXTUMBLR. Who knows, next week you may be part of Minkoff’s team. Good luck!
