We asked and you answered. Two weeks ago, we challenged our readers to design creative, self-expressive face masks, and you certainly delivered. As part of our Make a Statement Mask Contest in collaboration with Pinterest, we received tons of amazing entries and narrowed down our favorites to the eight face masks below. 

The designs below reflect a range of different styles. Some matched their face masks to their outfits, some added fanciful embellishments, and some got creative with materials (including an old bedsheet!). I also loved one face mask that was made with organic cotton that was naturally dyed using eucalyptus leaves. Thank you to everyone who participated in our challenge—and thank you for wearing a mask. Scroll down to see our favorite D.I.Y. face mask ideas.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
