The challenge set for this year's competition was to create a hat or headdress where <strong>equilibrium<\/strong> was a central part of the design. The pot included prizes worth \u00a345,000, including the opportunity to showcase their hats at the Official Exhibition of London Hat Week 2019 - World Garden - taking place 3-12 April 2019 at the Menier Gallery.<\/p>\n<p>Among the participants was Catharina Carlsson, who works in Ume\u00e5 and has her studio in Holmsund. She calls her entry in the competition The Balancing Act and it is made of straw, lace, silk and pearls, among other things.<\/p>\n<p>\"Nature is an important source of inspiration for me and we need to live in balance with it so as not to destroy more than we have already done. To symbolise this in the hat, I let the insect balance on the brim of the hat,\" says Catharina.<\/p>\n<p>To determine the winners of the competition, the jury assessed the quality of the workmanship, the originality of the design and the interpretation of the theme. The competition was won by fashion designer Stefania Belfiore from Italy with her entry Equilart. In fierce competition, Ume\u00e5-based designer Catharina received an honourable mention from the jury and a top 15 ranking.<br \/>In 2017, Catharina came second in the competition.<\/p>\n<p>And see Catharina's entry in this year's competition, The Balancing Art, here:<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/hatalk.com\/2019_comp_entry\/catharina-carlsson\/\">https:\/\/hatalk.com\/2019_comp_entry\/catharina-carlsson\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Read about the winners of the competition here:<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/hatalk.com\/2019-hatalk-hat-making-competition-winners\/\">https:\/\/hatalk.com\/2019-hatalk-hat-making-competition-winners\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Please follow eXpression on social media.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":14073,"template":"","class_list":["post-14072","pressmeddelande","type-pressmeddelande","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>MODIST FR\u00c5N UME\u00c5 TOPP 15 I INTERNATIONELL T\u00c4VLING - eXpression Ume\u00e5<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/expressionumea.se\/en\/press-release\/fashion-designer-from-umea-top-15-in-international-competition\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_GB\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"MODIST FR\u00c5N UME\u00c5 TOPP 15 I INTERNATIONELL T\u00c4VLING - eXpression Ume\u00e5\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"HATalk Hat Making Competition \u00e4r en stor \u00e5rlig modistt\u00e4vling d\u00e4r deltagarna f\u00e5r i uppgift att skapa en hatt eller huvudbonad utifr\u00e5n ett givet tema.
