LVMH Prize 2023 准决赛入围名单正式揭晓
NAMESAKE、JUNTAE KIM、KUSIKOHC 等 22 个新锐品牌脱颖而出。
值此十周年之际,LVMH Prize 官方稍早正式公布 2023 准决赛入围名单,从 2,400 名申请者中筛选后,本届共有来自全球各地的 22 个新锐品牌入围,其中更包括入选「Hypebeast100 Next」的台湾时装品牌 NAMESAKE。
这个旨在发掘人才的奖项由 LVMH 集团筹办,每年都会以旗下品牌设计师组成评审会选出年度新秀,冠军除了可获得 30 万欧元的奖励之外,还能够得到集团提供的丰富资源,像是为期一年的技术指导和财务支持等,Simon Porte Jacquemus、Grace Wales Bonner、Marine Serre 等活跃发展的设计师都曾为得主之一。
关于本次出炉名单,最近被任命为 Dior 新任 CEO 的 Delphine Arnault 在新闻稿中说道:「我很高兴能够迎来这些才华横溢的年轻设计师,也非常感谢从世界各地参与竞赛的选手们,这 22 个脱颖而出的品牌不仅都在与众不同的愿景驱使下,表现出极大的创造力和成熟度,亦有许多人在核心概念中融入自身根源地的文化和工艺技术。」
此外,Delphine Arnault 也谈及永续性、模糊性别框架等方面:「在回收材料的选用,以及更加本地化、道德化的生产系统下,生态环境责任也是众设计师们致力的一大重点,」而后继续补充道,「值得留意的还有男女装之间的流动性,不少设计师选择以无性别系列提倡包容性和多元价值观,同时呼应时尚产业当今的转变。」有兴趣的读者不妨下滑查看完整名单。
