06-03. challenge }}
Okay, here we are at the last week! It's been so much fun, I wish I could write more challenges for this theme ;A; but this one should top it off nicely, I hope you enjoy it!
inspiration
Now that we've dipped our proverbial toes in the world of fashion by exploring diverse sources of inspiration, it's time to finish off with some high fashion! \o/ If you submit this week, you must submit all 3 icons because they will be displayed together. It's completely up to you how you want to handle your set: they can work separately or cohesively. However, if you do make them cohesive in some way (i.e. font, colour, same series, etc.), that's 2 extra points for you. They don't have to look the same as long as they have a common theme of some kind.
There are no set themes for this week. However, you must interpret at least one of the following fashion inspirations into one of your icons. Once again, these themes can be interpreted however you wish: in terms of pattern, texture, colour, composition, text, feeling, anything you can think of! \o/
And if you're up for another 2 extra points, you can use (at least) one inspiration for each of your 3 icons :)
Outfits:
Alexander McQueen: 1, 2
John Galliano (for Dior): 1, 2
Karl Lagerfeld (for Chanel): here
Shoes:
Christian Louboutin: 1, 2
Stuart Weitzman: 1, 2
Accessories: because I couldn't resist ;D
Various designers: 1, 2, 3
Please let me know ASAP if any of these links don't work, so I can fix them for everyone~
participation
This challenge is open to everyone who has signed up here, whether or not you submitted during week 1 or week 2.
checklist
Your 3-icon set:
❑ must have at least one icon that is inspired by at least one of the outfits/shoes/accessories given in the "inspiration" section of this post
❑ must be from a shoujo anime or manga. We have links in the sidebar of the community layout to websites where you can check the validity of your icon's series.
❑ does not have to include your identity character. It can be of anyone you wish :)
❑ must follow usual LJ icon rules: no larger than 100x100, 40kb, all that.
❑ must not be shared outside of this post until the round is over.
❑ is submitted like so, using the provided form:
Your character identity name (only necessary once)

Series the image used is from
Which theme your icon is inspired by (please explain where necessary)
Identity: texthere
urlhere
Series: texthere
Theme used: texthere
points system
As usual, all participants this round started with 0 points. Through voting, you can gain points. It is important to get as many points as you can through your icon's performance in the challenge, because they will ultimately influence your ranking. It is impossible to lose points ~unless~ you break the rules of the community somehow or you misread the challenge requirements.
I will display the People's Choice icons in the results post, along with my Mod's Choices. People's Choice comes with 3 extra points, and Mod's Choice is just for fun. There will be no eliminations this entire round; rankings are just for fun, and everyone is free to make icons until the end!
skips?
Skips are available for this challenge as well - but it is the last one, so I would highly recommend submitting!!
deadline
Icons will be accepted until Friday, July 30, 11:59 EST, when voting will be posted.
Comments are screened. Have fun and get creative! ♥
