The winners of the 2022 competition have been announced!
This year, we asked students to DESIGN FOR THEIR HERO. Is it a fashion icon or an athlete or an artist or family member? The students designs must showcase their interpretation of sustainability.
Congratulations to all the students who participated. Watch the announcement below.

2022 Competition Winner Ksenia Cosmo
Ksenia Cosmo, a student at Melbourne Girls Grammar School in Victoria, recently won the Aspiring category of the Wool4School competition. With a transformable collection designed for her hero, Courtney Act, the designs consist of four garments and accessories that are interchangeable into ten different looks using Revolutionary Zips.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WINNERS OF THE 2022 COMPETITION
In 2022, we asked students to design an outfit for their hero whilst showcasing their interpretation of sustainability. Students’ heroes included fashion icons, athletes, and family members. Have a look at winning submissions here.
"I have been competing since 2016 and continued to do so as it was a wonderful opportunity to develop my interest of fashion design as well as the journey that would result in producing a final product. Yet, I would always fall short of winning, but this gave me multiple chances to improve my technical sketching skills, thinking processes and decision making for specific ideas that match the criteria and my vision. This competition gave me the prospect to have fun, be creative and follow my true passion."

"The Wool4School competition is a wonderful opportunity for the students to participate in an innovative real design scenario. The four parts of the competition allow the students to work through the various processes: creating a mood board, a design, then justifying their design through their creative statement and finally producing technical drawings. These are all diverse skills and to implement them in a design competition is such a great process for the students.
I also enjoy going through the production of fibre to fabric, through demonstrations of spinning, then students weaving fabrics on our floor and table looms, also, looking at the sustainability of wool, especially the life cycle. I see the competition as a fun and professional project for the students to participate. The bonus is the great sponsors and prizes."
