L’éclat is a monthly fashion design contest from modaCYCLE and Johnny Wu Designs. Each month we are giving away two vouchers for free custom manufacturing patterns from master pattern-maker Johnny Wu, valued at $200 each, to an emerging designer in the tri-state area. Not only that, but Johnny Wu will spend a few hours personally teaching the winner how to make their own patterns and how to design garments that are easier to mass produce without sacrificing quality.

Johnny Wu Designs is a Full Service Garment Manufacturer located in the fashion district of New York City. They support new and emerging designers to launch and grow their labels by providing precise patterns, high-quality samples, and flexible small production runs.
