Abstract & description

Abstract

A show of wiki-fashion, in all its forms, as modeled by Wikimedians.

Description

You're encouraged to come dressed in your finest Wikimedia clothing and accessories (bags, buttons, even books), or clothing connected to the topics you edit on wiki projects, show off your getup on the runway and tell the origin story of how you got them.

In addition to explicit "wiki" swag, we welcome you to show off clothing and accessories related to areas you have edited on.

We may also have a t-shirt / swag live creative design session and contest.
