      The act of taking one's grievance---for being rejected in a Fine Arts category---to a news station isn't humble.
      It's gross entitlement.
      News coverage should highlight those pieces and artists who did get accepted; who won prizes for following industry guidelines and proving excellence in their category.
      Her piece may be a Domestic Arts piece but not Fine Arts; and, she chooses to remain ignorant verses listen and learn what the show runners and industry leaders told her.

    When I was fifteen I entered a formal I sewed using a beautiful fabric from France given to me from a neighbor that I babysat for. It had covered buttons on French cuffs and an invisible zipper (1971?). It was disqualified because I was “too young” to have sewn it. My mother was furious with the old biddies in charge. Fast forward fifteen years and I was sewing custom leather clothing for thousands of dollars. You have a unique talent young lady! Displaying the dress behind glass in a casino is a great idea. Don’t let anyone try to take advantage of your work.

      ​@@theoryofpersonality1420I came to say the same. Follow the rules -- in place for mundane and serious reasons -- and your work gets shown and judged in the state fair.
      Mundane reasons for rules: the showcase boxes are limited in both number and size. The rules are in place to share the showcase boxes as fairly as possible. Your item doesn't fit, it doesn't get shown.
      Serious reasons: fire safety. You can't just stick a huge creation any old place if thousands of people are going to be walking past to see it. It needs to be in a place that's calculated both for viewability but also for visitors' safe egress.
      If your creation doesn't fit, it doesn't fit. Probably if she'd left it a pencil skirt like in the front rather than having the HUGE train in the back then it would have fit just fine and she'd have her red ribbon.
      I am glad that her creation is getting air time and PR. But don't be mealy mouthed about the state fair.

    this is why alot of artists don't bother to enter competitions anymore. we're convinced the ppl judging know NOTHING about Art. That dress is absolutely GORGEOUS. and what's better is that her art is made out of recyclables. that's the best kind. sure, the dress may not be wearable, but its the perfect display for a casino. As an artist myself who loves to do recycled crafts, I'm very proud and impressed with this young lady. She's got a bright future ahead with that amount of skill and talent, and of course the great support from her mom.

      Just be careful not to mess with fire, it burns. Witchcraft is no joke, you can tap into demonic spirits that can possess you and you need to go to Jesus and Christian, who understand deliverance ministry in order to get set free. This stuff isn’t fake, it’s real, but it isn’t good, there’s no such thing as white magic, miracles, and the devil counterfeits that take more than they give. See Deuteronomy, 18, John, first Corinthians, and Romans. A lot of people love to joke about witches, but the only one laughing is the devil laughing at, not with.
