Are you an aspiring designer? Here's one way to finally showcase your work to the world. Bench Design Awards, a nationwide search for the next big names in local fashion and design, has opened its call for new entries, following last year's success that produced the likes of Jaggy Glarino, Jenni Contreras, and RJ Santos.
The open call will last until June 1 and 10 designers will be given the chance to present their own collections at Bench Fashion Week in September. And just like last year, the top three finalists will be sent to Japan in October to present alongside Bench on the Amazon Fashion Week Tokyo Spring 2019 runway.
