Community Challenges are creator-run contests inviting everyone to showcase their best outfits based on themes chosen by the host. The host sets the theme and selects the winners at the end of each challenge. Anyone can start a new challenge around a themed outfit. These challenges provide a fun way to engage with the Parallel community, with new ones launching daily—so be sure to check back often! Entering and winning challenges increases your exposure on the platform.
