Designers and creatives from all over the world have come together for the 34th annual World of Wearable Art competition.

This year's event is taking up residence at Wellington's TSB Arena in Te Whanganui-a-Tara - with the final round of judging set to take place on Monday evening.

WOW Head of Competition Sarah Nathan says the calibre of entrants this year is extremely high.

"I think what you see year on year is - at one end, you've got technology, advancing materials and the way people manipulate materials and come up with new ways. And on the other end, you've got that beautiful hand craft, which always blows our minds."
