LVMH Prize 2024: Elevating Artisanship and Nurturing Next-Gen Designers with New Savoir-Faire Award

LVMH has officially opened the call for applications for the 11th edition of its prestigious LVMH Prize for Young Fashion Designers. Aspiring designers from all over the globe are invited to present their womenswear, menswear, or genderless ready-to-wear collections for a chance to win one of the fashion industry's most coveted awards.

This year, LVMH is expanding its recognition of fashion excellence with the introduction of the Savoir-Faire Prize. The new award is dedicated to celebrating craftsmanship and the sustainable innovation that drives the industry forward. With this prize, LVMH aims to highlight the importance of skill transmission and the artisanal mastery that lies at the heart of luxury fashion.

The LVMH Prize for Young Fashion Designers offers a substantial endowment and mentorship to support the winners' growth in various business areas, such as sustainable development and brand management. Similarly, the Karl Lagerfeld Prize and the newly established Savoir-Faire Prize both offer financial support and guidance from industry veterans.

The application window opens on 8th November 2023 and will close on 7th January 2024, with the semi-final set for the end of February. The process not only recognizes established designers but also graduates from fashion schools, with a separate application period for the latter group.

To mark the 10th anniversary of the LVMH Prize, a documentary by Loïc Prigent has been released, providing an intimate look at the competition's evolution and its significance in the fashion industry. The film delves into the stories of past winners, the creative energy that the prize has fostered over the years, and LVMH's role in shaping the future of fashion.
