Before there was Project Runway. Before Banksy, Balenciaga, Mash-up, American Idol, or 8 Mile hit the map, New York fashion artists House of Diehl created Instant Coutureª. In a mash-up of fashion, art and music, radical fashion is created in minutes – live, on stage — using the audience as the models, everyone as designers, and recycled-anything as material. Inspired by MC battling, hip hop, and haute couture, the results are Wild & Freestyled, one-of-a-kind masterpieces that capture  and create Style Tribes—the time, place and crowd in which they were created!

Now, House of Diehl (creative partners Mary Jo Diehl and Roman Milisic) usher in the next generation of Instant Couture designers with STYLE WARS, where fast and furious creatives (aspiring "Style DJs") compete to create their own "Instant Couture." The battles begin online this summer @ http://www.moli.com/stylewars.

BE SEEN ON THE SCENE: Create a profile Style Wars site to show off your work and win cool shit! Participate in weekly fashion "challenges" to get in front of the judging panel of industry VIPs and celebrities, as well as fans and haters on the site. In September, semi-finalists from each city will be chosen to compete in the live Style Wars Tour itself.


Coming in October!

The STYLE WARS tour rolls through New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles and Miami. Experience the Battles live to the sound of the best mash-up DJs in the world! Watch as the fierce designers cut, tape, burn and drape, to create new fashion items from vintage garments, recycled objects, and other unexpected materials, while their fans in the audience model and photograph, or simply cheer them on. Participants will be judged by a panel of celebrity judges, and the champion from each city wins mad prizes, $1000 cash, and an invitation to participate in the Style Wars Grand Finale, which will take place later this year in New York City.

Over the last five years House of Diehl have staged Instant Couture performances  around the world, from Vienna to Valencia, from LA to London. Check out their work:
