Première Vision shows support for the industry at 29th HyÈres Festival

A partner of the famed Hyères International Festival of Fashion & Photography since 2011, Première Vision, which strengthened its collaboration in 2013, will once again this year present the Première Vision Grand Jury Prize. Accompanied by a EUR 15,000 purse, the prize is being awarded to the winner of the fashion prize by a special jury, chaired this year by Kenzo creative directors Carol Lim and Humberto Leon.

Supporting talents

The festival is one way Première Vision fulfils its mission to support textile creativity while helping to discover new talents. The event will be taking place at the Villa Noailles from 25-28 April.

Première Vision also offers support for aspiring designers by helping them in their creative process. Ten finalists were welcomed to the Première Vision, Modamont and Expofil shows that took place from 18-19 February, where young designers were put in direct contact with exhibitors.

They were able to benefit from a privileged access to products, such as yarns, fabrics and trimmings, from top international companies.

Access

Additionally, in a new development this year, finalists were welcomed by select exhibitors at ZOOM, the fashion manufacturing show, to help them manufacture their collections.

Beyond awarding the Grand Prize, a continued collaboration with the winner of the fashion prize will include:

  • Free access for two years to all the Paris shows and Trend Vision Paris seminars, organised by the Première Vision fashion teams;
  • A presence at Première Vision New York that will be held from 22-23 July and Première Vision Paris that is due from 16-18 September.
