=== What is Wearable Art?
Wearable Art is original, one of a kind, often whimsical, innovative or theatrical adornment for the human body. Artists & designers will use any materials, such as wood, metal, leather, candy, pop cans, paper, or carpet to build a costume of artistic endeavor. To complement the designs, hair, make-up, shoes & accessories are styled to complete the look.

=== What is the Wearable Art Competition?
The Wearable Art Competition is an “art couture fashion show” and performance/exhibition of creative explorations of body adornment. Artists create a wearable work and their chosen performer will wear the art and “perform” the artwork for 2 minutes to music, also selected by the participants. The entries will be presented in a theatrical performance, with the final night’s show including judging, an awards ceremony and cocktail reception. A panel of judges will award prizes; the audience will also vote on their favourite piece.
