Thebe Magugu: A Bra超变态网页游戏ve New Talent Out of 变态页游

Perhaps the most dramatic effect was created for Anrealage by its Tokyo-based designer Kunihiko Morinaga, who applied digital tools to his no-colour collection so they lit up with bright plaids and checks.

But the winner of the LVMH 2019 Prize was not the only far-away contestant. After six years of growth, the LVMH Prize is stretching its tentacles across the world, with a second 变态页游n contestant in Kenneth Ize from Nigeria, and the winner of the new Karl Lagerfeld Prize, Hed Mayer from Israel.

“There were an exceptional number of applicants: a record 1,700 from one hundred countries,“ said Delphine Arnault, the event’s main organiser and Executive Vice-President of Louis Vuitton, while her father Bernard Arnault, Chairman and Chief Executive of LVMH Mot Hennessy – Louis Vuitton, praised the fresh focus on sustainability and thoughtful fashion.

For Thebe, the first prize was still a dream, and Delphine Arnault felt much the same.

The business executives behind LVMH were also in force in the well of the Louis Vuitton Foundation, created by architect Frank Gehry in the Bois de Boulogne. Sidney Toledano, Chairman and CEO of LVMH, said that he was impressed by the maturity of the work on display, and that the work of each of the final eight contestants was important for having been selected – even if they were not ultimately the big winner.

Hed Mayner talked about “body language in clothes”, explaining how his menswear first gained traction in Japan and then found an audience and clientele in Europe. Mayner won the first award given in honour of the late Karl Lagerfeld – Delphine Arnault’s idea, which will become a permanent part of the LVMH Prize, offering the winner 150,000 with one year’s mentorship.

Both designers and executives took note of the changing fashion world. “We have a lot to learn from the younger generation – and Thebe wants to stay in Johannesburg, using, by principle, local resources,” said Nicolas Ghesquière.
