Horrible Threadless
November 9, 2008
Well I know what a nightmare it is trying to win at Threadless but never mind that…
Threadless.com is Daring Designers to Face Their Fears and Design for Horror in its Latest Loves Competition.
Community-centric tee shirt company Threadless.com is nixing the holiday calendar and brewing up spooky situations after Halloween. That’s right, as an excuse to keep those scary decorations up and continue asking your neighbours for candy, Threadless’ latest “Loves” challenge is asking designers everywhere to conjure up a design for a tee based on the concept of horror.
These ghastly designs could snag designers a cauldron full of tasty treats, courtesy of some awesome partners. So whether it’s spiders, ghosts, a bad dream, or a fear of submitting a tee shirt design, now is the chance to earn a limited-edition skate deck and a 1970’s signed vintage Fender bass guitar from Alkaline Trio, a feature in an upcoming issue of Rue Morgue along with an instant collection of horror memorabilia, and an extensive comic collection from Devil’s Due Publishing. Wacom is also going to hook the chosen designer up with a new Intous tablet. And as always, designers will also receive a $500 Threadless gift certificate and $2,000 in cash!
What are you afraid of?
“Threadless Loves” challenges give designers an opportunity to flex their skills and design to a particular challenge. Challenges are sponsored and supported by companies relevant to the idea. Previous “Loves” partners include Hot Chip, Moby, MTV’s Human Giant, and the Lomographic Society International.
Deadline for entries is December 1, 2008. For more info on the design challenge and all its partners, hit the links below:
