Also, we didn’t change anything with the original statement. (Read: Pabago-bago as per the posted statement at the thread ). What we just added (as per the clarification statement) was the fact that the original lay-out or high-fashion campaign be sent together with the recreated look. This was added in order to help out the judges in ranking and judging the entries so that they will have a basis for the recreated look.

Now, what is really in question here is the word “RECREATE”. As per definition (through Google search), RECREATE means the following:


- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
re-cre•ate (r kr - t )
tr.v. re-cre•at•ed, re-cre•at•ing, re-cre•ates
To create anew.

Given those definitions, the entries to be submitted - either directly copied, replicated, reinterpreted, or inspired by – should still have an original copy of the high-fashion lay-out attached for the judges to have a basis for their decision.

In addition, in order to avoid further problems, we will be implementing a decimal point system (1.0 to 9.9) for the judging of entries. The judges will be given an excel form to fill in their scores for each entry. It will be sent to them through email.

We hope that with this official statement, the issue created will be put to rest.

To all the finalists, good luck and always remember this – “Challenges and pressures will always be a part of our lives, what is important is how we surpass and deal with them. “
