    Hello,

    All my contests end with a winner so you can submit with confidence. Also, I always give substantial feedback.

    I need a great business card design for a fashion company. The design will not be like your standard business card. We want to be creative. The business card will be in the style of a dress because the clothing company makes chic dresses. I will provide a few links below as an example of some things I like or what I mean about it not being a standard business card.

    This is a business card design for an eyeware company. When I said that it would be a non-standard design. This is what I meant. However, instead of eyeglasses, our design will be based on a dress or a woman fashionably dressed. However, we will have text on the card.

    This again is just to show SHAPE. That a business card doesn't need to be a standard rectangular shape

    same as above

    This is not a business card. However, this should give an idea of the type of shape/design the card should take. Take a look at the two on the left and right hand sides. We should be aiming to make the card similar in shape. However, pay no attention to the color scheme here. Do a search on google images for "chic dresses" and that should give you some ideas

    The winner will need to send me the files in PSD.


    The text on the business cards should read:

    Company Name: M SENA
    Tagline: Epitome of Chic
    website: msena . c o m
    Name:John Doe
    Office:555-555-5555
    Mobile:555-555-5555
    Los Angeles, CA 90039


    Ends in 7 days or sooner if I find something that I like.

    I will PM the winner the correct contact information for the card after this ends.

    Seeking novice and experienced graphic designers.

    Payment will be made using paypal

    To give another concrete example of what I mean by using a dress. Check out Jean Paul Guiltier has used that for the design of their perfume bottle.. check out the red one of the left. I'm looking for something like that

    If designs are posted today, I will give feedback tomorrow. I'm usually online all day and respond immediately, but I won't be online tonight and early tomorrow. Thanks in advance for the submissions. The person who wins this will also get another small project from me because I will probably need a "normal" business card design as well.

    Can you stand up the dress vertically instead of horizontally. Also, I want the text to placed vertically.

    lets try with the dress in red instead of blue and try to give a bit more details to the dress...maybe put a belt on it as well

    ^^^

    Remember.I don't want the standard style. I want a card that has the shape of a dress literally. I received one by PM that was a vertical card with the right side being standard and the left side being the cut-out of the dress..
