ANDAM announces its 2023 winners
by Gabriel Córdoba Acosta
Over the years, the ANDAM Awards have become one of the most important fashion competitions in the sector and one of the ones that receive the most attention, given that the nominees are usually some of the designers of the moment. Every year at this time, the jury members usually meet to analyse in depth the proposals presented by the finalists. This meeting, and the celebration of the event, took place on June 29th in Paris, and the winners of every one of the categories were announced, which are:
THE ANDAM GRAND PRIZE
LGN LOUIS-GABRIEL NOUCHI
THE PIERRE BERGÉ PRIZE
AVELLANO
THE ACCESSORIES PRIZE:
RUSLAN BAGINSKIY
AND FINALLY, FOR THE FIRST TIME, TWO SPECIAL PRIZES MORE TO:
DURAN LANTINK
ESTER MANAS
Before concluding, if you are not familiar with these awards, Guillaume Houzé – President of Andam, Director of Image and Communication, and member of the Board of Directors of Groupe Galeries Lafayette – explains what they are all about and their purpose: “ANDAM’s ability to continuously reinvent the format of its awards, to attract ever more talented designers and to surround itself with loyal and committed sponsors proves year after year that the organization is a source of inspiration, change but also stability for the fashion industry. ANDAM is the expression of a common purpose, of a shared passion, of energies that work separately all year long to finally come together, discuss, and deliberate but above all, love fashion. And we owe this to the designers and to our institutional and private partners who both empower the future, while preserving the past.”
Congratulations to all participants and especially to the winners!
