In your sketches, designers must clearly identify the preferred model size. Standard industry size for ladies is size 34. Designers must specify if collections require diversity in size range. By enrolling in the Rocking the Daisies Festival Fashion Talent Search, you guarantee the authorship of your project. Should you be found guilty of plagiarism, you will be automatically disqualified. Rocking the Daisies takes no responsibility for accusations of plagiarism coming from third parties. The applicants will retain the copyright of the enrolled festival fashion collection. Contestants must conduct themselves professionally throughout the competition, including adherence to event schedules, respectful behaviour towards judges and fellow contestants, and compliance with all competition rules. Rocking the Daisies (Steyn Entertainment) reserves the right to disqualify any contestant at any time if they do not respect the terms and conditions of the entry requirements. Whilst every effort is made to ensure the safety of all submissions, Steyn Entertainment cannot be held responsible for any damage\/theft of garments or designs that may occur during transport, selections or during the showcase at Rocking the Daisies Festival. If selected as a Rocking the Daisies Festival Fashion Talent Search finalist, contestants are required to carry out all further arrangements (transport, etc.) and other obligations timeously. Finalist Rules &#038; Conditions Finalists, based on their talent, their ability to follow the brief, are selected via public votes and a panel of industry-leading judges. In case of selection, the outfits will have to be made in total accordance with the sketches and technical details presented. Correct and accurate execution of outfits is essential, and if reckoned to vary greatly from the enrolled shapes and designs, the selected contestant will be disqualified. Once the top 5 finalists are chosen \u2013 those 5 designs must be produced by the designer and be ready for fittings in September 2025. Failure to produce all 5 completed looks in the allocated time will result in disqualification, in which the next runner-up will then take that slot in the top 5. Flights will not be provided for finalists. Should you not be based in Cape Town you will have to pay for your flights to the fitting and the show. Accommodation for the show will be discussed on a case-by-case basis. Steyn Entertainment will produce a fashion show at the festival where the top 5 finalists will showcase their work.
