Project OR is a 48 hour competition held at the Outdoor Retailer Summer Market in Salt Lake City, July 21-24. The contest offers design students the opportunity to develop award winning garments from design concept to final prototype in a reality competition.
The contestants, top student designers chosen from fashion design programs at universities in the United States will compete for a trip to the Outdoor Retailer Winter Market in 2010 and a profile in a Textile Insight. The student's challenge is to create innovative outdoor fashions using high tech, eco friendly materials from exhibitors at the Outdoor Retailer Summer Market.
Lunabrite® Light Technology absorbs solar or ambient light during the day and then actively emits light in darkness. Lunabrite needs no batteries, wires or electricity and is completely non toxic and weather resistant. Lunabrite is also lightweight, soft to the touch and very flexible. It cuts easily with scissors and Lunabrite's attachable edge makes it simple to be sewn into most fabrics.
According to Lunabrite General Manager, Barb Sommer, "We are excited to offer fashion design students the opportunity to work with our leading edge technology and look forward to the results of the competition".
Sommer further states that eco-friendly Lunabrite™ blends function with fashion and will add a design dimension that will be appealing to the contestants. "We are eager to see the creative ideas in outdoor fashion that design students generate with Lunabrite light technology".
