\"\"<\/a>On a worldwide level, we can’t think of any retailer who can compete with H&M’s collaborations, and now they’re opening that up to aspiring artists and designers through their Your Art Here contest<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In addition to joining the ranks of the celebrities who contribute designs each year for the H&M collaboration with Designers Against AIDS, and people like Lanvin’s Alber Elbaz (you may have heard of a little collection between the two), five pieces will be chosen to grace the front of t-shirts sold in H&M’s US stores. Winning artists will also receive a $500 gift card, a $2000 stipend and a window display at H&M’s 42nd Street New York store.<\/p>\n

“The 25 pieces with the most votes will be showcased to our esteemed panel of judges who will use their expertise to choose the top 5.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And who are these esteemed judges? The jury includes Bryan Boy<\/strong> (side note: what fashion jury isn’t<\/em> he on these days? At this rate, we expect to see a BryanBoy episode of Project Runway, America’s Next Top Model and possibly RuPaul’s Drag Race soon), Fashion Bomb<\/a> editor Claire Sulmers<\/strong>, Allison McNamara<\/strong> of FabSugar TV, Mark Schoneveld<\/strong> of YVYNYL<\/a> and Alexander Gilkes<\/strong> of the forthcoming online art startup Paddle8.<\/p>\n

So if your t-shirt art needs a bigger stage than Threadless, or you just prefer the idea of starting a conversation out with “when I collaborated with H&M…” click on over and make your mark. Good luck!<\/p>\n
