Jeremy Laing, Anthony Vaccarello and Adam Kimmel Nominated for This Year’s ANDAM Fashion Award

by

Thanks to a grand endorsement from Carine Roifeld, Hakaan Yildirim was already a name to know when he received France’s prestigious ANDAM award in 2010. “We’re in Harvey Nichols, Colette, Opening Ceremony–it’s nearly 26 stockists internationally!” he told Fashionista at the awards ceremony in Paris last October.

Now it’s time for another up-and-comer to take advantage of the prize, i.e. €220,000, a mentorship with former Chloe chief exec Ralph Toledano, and the chance to show at Paris Fashion Week. This year’s nominees include Jeremy Laing, Adam Kimmel, Anthony Vaccarello, Commuun, Matthew Harding, and Yiqing Yin. The judges? Pierre Berge, Hillary Alexander, Emmanuelle Alt, Nicole Phelps, Sarah Lerfel from Colette, and Humberto Leon from Opening Ceremony, to name a few.

The Itsy Bitsy Giles Spider

by

It feels like the best way for a designer to survive these days is to have a hand in everything. While Chris Kane’s styling lookbooks for hair products and designing Versus, Giles Deacon’s sprouting mini-one-off collections and other projects all over the place.
