Young people between the ages of 14 and 35 are invited to participate for free, choosing to recreate, with originality, emblematic styles from the eras that inspired them. The fashion shows will start at 12:00, in a setting dedicated to creativity and good mood, and the outfits will be evaluated by a jury made up of design, art and communication specialists.
The prizes up for grabs are attractive:

- Second Prize: 700 lei
- Third Prize: 500 lei
The competition aims not only to bring retro fashion to the forefront, but also to encourage free expression and the valorization of cultural heritage through clothing. Participants are encouraged to register by filling out the official form available here: https://forms.gle/UGC7kqYeMvZkzAJ3A
