Society of Dyers and Colourists (SDC) International Design Competition
SDC are looking for the creative, imaginative and original use of colour in either fashion or textiles. This year's theme is social responsibility, so the design should also incorporate an innovative approach to this area.

The finalists from each country will be invited to the grand final in London, UK in October 2010. This high profile, prestigious competition attracts significant international press coverage.
The competition is open to undergraduate fashion and textile design students in: Australia, Bangladesh, China, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, New Zealand, Pakistan, Singapore, South Africa, Turkey, United Kingdom and United States of America.
