Etnomoda Design Contest Begins
![]()
Etnomoda Art Community is organizing the first digital Ethno-Fashion Contest with the support of Istanbul Ticaret University. Competitors will be able to participate in the contest with the products they created using the 3D clothing visualization technique.
The contest, which was held face to face before, will be held digitally this year. In parallel, the products to be sent to the contest will be prepared digitally. The contest is held this year to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Republics of Adygea, Kabardino-Balkaria and Karachay-Cherkess. It is aimed that the products that will compete in the contest carry Circassian ethnic elements.
The jury of the competition, which is also supported by the Textile and Fashion Design Department of our university, comprises designer and faculty member at British Higher School of Art and Design Maria Shevchenko, 3D artist, game and NFT development specialist Hussein Kuchkarov, 3D designer Nastasia Nekrasova and Etnomoda founder Susanna Makerova.
Jury selections of the contest, which will be held in a completely digital environment, will also be made online. The winners will benefit from the 3D Couture course free of charge, and their products will be exhibited on the “EtnomodaArtRoom” platform and promoted in the “Etnomoda” festival competition and in different exhibitions all over Russia and internationally.
