Brides Magazine Operation Dream Dress Design Contest

THREAD YOUR NEEDLES, BRIDES OPERATION DREAM DRESS DESIGN CONTEST IS NOW OPEN!

Sketches are due by February 1, 2011.
The annual OPERATION DREAM DRESS contest is underway, and once again BRIDES MAGAZINE is looking for the most creative up-and-coming designers in America.

Contestants are invited to submit a sketch that embodies this year’s theme of ARTFUL ROMANCE.  BRIDES editors will narrow the field to the top 25 who will be asked to create and photograph their gowns.  A nationwide vote will determine the final five designers who will be invited to New York City where the winner will be announced.  The winning gown will be featured on the cover of an upcoming issue of BRIDES, and the top designer will receive a check for $10,000.
