LVMH Group, the renowned luxury goods conglomerate, is once again demonstrating its commitment to nurturing new talent in the fashion industry. The 9th edition of the highly sought-after LVMH Prize has opened its applications, giving aspiring fashion designers the opportunity to showcase their work and receive support from one of the industry’s biggest players.
Since its inception in 2013, the LVMH Prize has become a prestigious platform for emerging fashion designers on an international scale. Its main objective is to provide financial backing and strategic guidance to young talents in the fashion world. The Grand Prize offers a significant financial boost of 300,000 euros, while the Karl Lagerfeld Prize provides 150,000 euros. Alongside the monetary rewards, winners also benefit from the group’s expertise in intellectual property, sustainability, and business management. Moreover, they gain invaluable visibility as past winners such as Thebe Magugu, Grace Wales Bonner, Marine Serre, and Jacquemus have risen to prominence through this competition.
Aside from the two main awards, LVMH also recognizes outstanding graduates each year. Through collaborations with renowned fashion schools, the winning talents are given the opportunity to work with one of the group’s prestigious fashion houses for a year.
The LVMH Prize is open to aspiring designers between the ages of 18 and 40 who have already presented at least two collections of women’s, men’s, or unisex ready-to-wear. The semi-final stage of the competition will take place on March 2, 2022, and will be showcased on the official website and social media platforms of the event from March 3 to March 6.
