Glamour and the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) hosted the rapid-paced full-day 'Dressed To Code' hackathon at General Assembly on September 7th. Teams of co-ed developers, designers, and entrepreneurial thinkers spent a day designing, developing and creating a game/app/tool that can engage fashionistas around shopping, street style, or sharing outfit ideas. Prototypes were demonstrated at the on-site event and a panel of judges from the fashion startup world selected the winning teams. Judges included: Wanelo CEO - Deena Varshavskaya, 72Lux Founder - Heather Marie, Fashion Designer - Rebecca Minkoff and Vine Co-founder & Creative Director - Rus Yusupov.
