Festival international de mode - Hyères

Since 1986, the festival has promoted and supported young international fashion design, since 1997 a competition has also existed for emerging photographers and this year, since 2016, a competition will also recognise young fashion accessory designers. The festival is acknowledged as the oldest fashion competition aimed at young professionals.

Several prizes are awarded to the competing designers thanks to grants provided by the festival’s partners who commit, together with the festival, to provide long term support. Practical assistance is provided right from the selection stage as well as during a period of two years in various different domains: financing, production, workmanship, materials, production, legal, media, exhibitions, workshops and residencies.

Once again in 2021, the faithful partners of the Festival are committed to support the next generation of designers: Chanel, le19M, Première Vision, LVMH, Hermès, Mercedes-Benz, American Vintage, la Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode, le Défi, Galeries Lafayette, l’Atelier des Matières, Mercedes-Benz.
