Fortnite Fashion Shows are back for Season 2 with Lachlan’s official $20,000 competition.

Love them or hate them, Fashion Shows were a massive part of Fortnite Chapter 2 Season 1. They became the go-to well of content for creators who were having difficulty coming up with fresh takes on the longest season in Fortnite history.

Now that Season 2 is here, however, the Fashion Show trend has significantly died down. You won’t see as many established creators hosting them anymore – as popular as they were at their peak.

Australian YouTuber Lachlan Power wasn’t the originator of the Fortnite Fashion Shows, but he did take them to the next level. He hosted a $10,000 Fashion Show World Cup, which fellow creators Ali-A and SypherPK ended up winning.

In the v12.20 game files, data miners found a custom map for Lachlan’s Fashion Show that had yet to be released. Naturally, most fans assumed that he would be hosting another one – this time, with the help of Epic Games.

These assumptions were proven correct on March 19, when Lachlan announced that he’d be teaming up with Fortnite for a $20,000 Fashion Show. The announcement also told fans that there would be 500 of the unreleased Slurp Legends packs up for grabs.

This Fashion Show will be a trios competition, rather than duos. You will have to fill out a document to enter the competition, and Lachlan will be choosing the top 150 teams to battle it out on the runway.

Fashion Shows aren’t as popular as they once were, but a $20,000 prize pool is enough motivation to get people out there. It will be interesting to see if SypherPK and Ali-A will reunite to defend their crown, at least.
