The Directive
"I'm giving you one garment, one theme, and one shot. I want to see how you interpret what it means to Explore the Unknown. Not what you think I want to see — what you actually feel when you hear those words. Push the silhouette. Challenge the graphic. Make me wish I designed it myself."
The Garment
Hoodie
Pullover or zip-up — your choice. The silhouette is yours to own.
The Theme
Explore the Unknown
What does it mean to go somewhere no one has gone before — in fashion, in life, in self-expression? This isn't about space. It's about the courage to wear something that doesn't exist yet. Interpret this however your instincts take you.
The Rules
- 01
Garment
Hoodie only — pullover or zip-up.
- 02
Colors
No restrictions — but the design must feel intentional, not accidental.
- 03
Graphics
Original artwork only — no copied or AI-generated imagery.
- 04
NUDÉ Identity
The piece must carry the NUDÉ name or mark somewhere in the design — placement is your creative choice.
- 05
Submissions
1–3 design images (sketch, digital render, or finished sample) + one 60-second video pitch.
- 06
Originality
You must own all rights to everything you submit — no borrowed artwork, no licensed fonts.
