DUBAI: French-Moroccan fashion label Aswad has been named winner of the Accessories Prize at the 2021 ANDAM Fashion Awards in Paris this week.
The brand, founded by French-Moroccan accessories designer Sonia Ahmimou, presented its collection to the jury members – who included Blackpink’s Lisa, Chinese singer Chris Lee and fashion designers Kerby Jean-Raymond and Phoebe Philo – on Thursday.
Ahmimou’s award is worth more than $59,000.
Other contenders included jeweler Samuel François and Austrian studio Published By.
UK designer Bianca Saunders took home the top award of more than $360,000, which comes with a year of coaching from Balenciaga chief executive officer Cédric Charbit, the president of this year’s jury.
ANDAM (National Association for the Development of the Fashion Arts) was established in 1989 by Nathalie Dufour as a joint venture between the French Ministry of Culture and the Defi Mode fashion organization, and its four annual fashion prizes aim to nurture young talent from Europe.
