It's time for Label's Festive Fashion checks! She's standing outside town hall with her clip board in freezing temperatures, ready to do some research on the snazziest winter looks! Don't let her down! Seriously, don't ignore her this time. She's handing out snowflakes.

🎄 Prompts & Schedule 🎄



Prompt #1: A Festive Sweater!
Start
: December 14
End: December 19, 11:59 pm EST​

  • Make an outfit based around a sweater you design in the Pro Designs app. This is a designing challenge, so it must be your own creation. The design should be your own idea, but you can take inspiration from other designs as long as it is not copied pixel for pixel. Think classic winter-themed sweaters and everyone's favorite ugly Christmas sweater!
  • For this prompt, along with your photo and list of items, you must also provide a screenshot of your custom design with your username displayed. Below is an example of an acceptable entry:

Prompt #2: Story Time!
Start:
December 20
End: December 24​

  • Make an outfit based around a Christmas or Winter-themed storybook or movie character.
  • These could be characters from classic stories and pop culture or even actors that have played specific characters in movies. Characters from games are also acceptable. Please do not base them off your own characters/OCs. You may put your own personal twist to it but the overall outfit should be recognisable/or a reference to a pre-existing character in some way.
  • The photo must be your own and should not be edited in any way.
  • Please take the photo in your dressing room screen and list all the items you have used. You must also mention who/what you are referencing.
  • You may use custom designs if you wish but you do not have to.
  • If you are unsure that your idea would be acceptable, please DM me first before posting.

Please resubmit with your username as the sweater’s title and your image in the dresser screen. Thanks :D
 
Bit of a weird question.
For designing a sweater if I wanted the sweater to have, say, a fake scarf with it would it be okay to draw one on or would that no longer be qualified as just a sweater? Basically asking if drawing accessories is fine or if I should focus on JUST a sweater.​

There could be a sweater design with a fake scarf🤔 I would allow it as I would count it as part of a sweater design. I would draw the line if someone were to design a jacket that covers the whole sweater template, as that’s more about the jacket now.
 
Hii guys!!!

So here is my entry, since I love snow very much, I have decided to stay true to the snowman theme and just as my signature I ended up featuring mister snowman once again but this time around for my holiday sweater heheh ☃ 😅.
(If you haven't noticed I miss just a little bit the snow tribe we had in New leaf 😅 )

I had tons of fun doing this and I am actually gonna wear it for a while, I might even do a Miss snowman, to commemorate her since she did sadly not make a return from new leaf, I really miss the Snow family!

For the sweater since I did not want to saturate it with images in the back and front I decided to make a snowman in the front part and just add snowflakes and snow in the back with some fluffy snow in the ground, to make it all more cohesion. For the sleeves I though it would be nice to have some colors and something a bit different from the whole texture to bring the sweater a bit more alive and make it stand out a bit more. 💙

After all the hard work, I went back home to make a change of outfit ( since i was wearing a snowman costume ) as I check my phone (Thank god!) I noticed that the snow levels from back and front were totally uneven so that took me a little while until I manage to make both size even while at the same time making the snow ground in the sweater kinda realistic and not just boring flat. So lesson learned!!! when editing your entries be very careful with the sides, they are super hard to see in in the app while creating 🙈!
