Now it's YOUR turn to choose the winning design that will become the official collectible fashion for JemCon 2026!
"CAPE ROYALTY" This regal beach look channels pure coastal sophistication with a sheer, glittery open button-down top trimmed in classic Stingers yellow and black patterns. The coordinating dolphin shorts feature the same bold trim, accented by stylish scarves tied at the waist. Accessories complete the royal treatment: white mesh gloves, statement bracelets, bold earrings, an arm bandana, black choker, and a golden "R" necklace for Riot. The crowning touches—literally—are a gleaming gold crown and a dramatic regal cape that demands attention from beach to boardwalk.
"MERMAN DREAMS" What screams Beach Royalty more than the king of the seas himself? This design transforms Rio into an ocean sovereign with a gold crown, dramatic black fishnet shawl, and matching cuff bracelets. The showstopper is a shimmering black and gold mermaid tail with a sculptural gold fin—perfect for commanding his beach throne. When duty calls him back to land, the tail detaches to reveal a sleek black bikini bottom featuring "The Stingers" emblazoned across the back. The cuff bracelets can double as ankle accessories for maximum versatility and outrageous style.
"IRIDESCENT KING" This design captures Beach Royalty through pure shimmer and shine. An iridescent holographic jacket catches the light like sun on ocean waves, paired with crisp white shorts detailed with coordinating iridescent accents. A statement turquoise beaded necklace brings coastal color, while pearl-like accessories and matching jewelry add unexpected elegance. The look is topped with a gold starfish crown that perfectly balances whimsy with majesty. It's the kind of outfit that transitions seamlessly from poolside lounging to ruling the dance floor—truly outrageous in every way.
