School Uniform Design Contest
We are excited to announce a School Uniform Design Contest! With the upcoming TetraWizard Tournament, one of the little questions is what the school uniforms look like at the visiting schools. For around two, we will be designing uniforms for Durmstrang Institute, hidden away in northern Scandinavia!
Requirement: Red is an important color for the school and should be featured.
Consider: … uniforms for boys and girls, any marker for discipline?
The Movie: You are not required to consider the school uniform depicted in the movies as the standard but you may be inspired by that design if you wish! We’re leaving it up to the members to decide how close (if close at all) we’d like to mimic the movie design.
Format: Any format is acceptable! Here are some suggestions…
A detailed written description
Hand-drawn art
Photographs or a collection of images
Entries: You may work in teams if you wish, and multiple entries per writer are permitted.
The deadline is October 27, 2021.
Please submit your entries to the Absit Omen Curator account.
As soon as the entries are in, we’ll vote! The most popular result will become the official uniform for Durmstang. We’d love to be able to post the new uniform online.
