FASHION

Our fashion award recognises independent, emerging fashion designers whose work makes us gasp with glee. For the purpose of entering Good Stuff, a ‘project’ may include a single garment or clothing range.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Our photography award recognises an utterly eye-catching snap, either personal, creative or part of a commercial campaign. Some slight editing is allowed, as long as the original photo isn’t altered more than 25 per cent. Your shot will be judged on originality, composition, technical camera skills and your ability to communicate meaning or a new take on the world.

Entry requirements:

  • only one photograph to be submitted per entry
  • photos to be supplied in JPG or PNG format, in reasonably high resolution (at least 1000px x 1000px) and at a maximum of 5MB per image

SMALL BUSINESS + COMMUNITY

Our small business + community award is open to small businesses, social enterprises and not-for-profits. The award recognises an innovative, independent business idea that challenges the norm. This may include food and drink ventures, retail stores, service providers and more. If you are a social enterprise or NFP, trade may be used to fulfil your mission (via membership, sponsorship or sales of products/services), but the overall benefit must be to the greater good, whether you are addressing social, environmental or community issues. Judging will consider originality, user experience, business strategy, understanding of market needs, likelihood of success, positive impact and sustainability.

Entry requirements:

  • only one business or enterprise to be submitted per entry
  • small business: please provide an overview of your business, including achievements to date
  • social enterprise + NFP: please provide an overview of your venture, your social mission and how you are delivering on your mission
  • image/s representing your business or venture to be supplied in JPG or PNG format, in reasonably high resolution (at least 1000px x 1000px) and at a maximum of 5MB per image.
