The application period runs from November 17, 2025, to January 11, 2026. A semi-final will be held on March 4th and 5th, 2026. This event will be accessible online, allowing both the Prize’s experts and the public to view the work and help select the finalists.

The Prize includes four distinct awards. The main LVMH Prize winner receives a 400,000-euro grant and a tailored mentorship from LVMH teams. The Karl Lagerfeld Prize and the Savoir-Faire Prize each offer a 200,000-euro endowment and a one-year mentorship.

A separate award exists for recent graduates. The LVMH Prize for Young Fashion Graduates offers three winners a one-year contract within the creative studios of an LVMH brand.
