The criteria for a good evaluation and thus a nomination for the final round were creativity, good workmanship, practicability, a novel design idea and of course wearability in real-life. "It certainly wasn't easy for us to decide the finalists," emphasised Thomas Poster, Project Manager of the Children's Fashion Cologne. "Most of the entries were well thought-out and the quality level was very high," stressed Thomas Postert, Project Manager of the Children's Fashion Cologne.
