ITS#NINE Finale in Trieste - fashion & accessory contest with Viktor&Rolf in the jury

A new, fantastic journey is starting for the ITS#NINE finalists. The international talent support selected the top 22 fashion and accessory projects from hundreds of entries. They will then be invited to come to Trieste in July, where they can present their work to a star-studded jury.

The ITS creators of the EVE agency have organised the design contest for the ninth time. This year, with the support of Diesel, YKK and Swarovski Elements, young talents will once again come together and have the opportunity of meeting up with legends such as Viktor&Rolf, exchange ideas and win coveted prizes.

In addition to the aforementioned Dutch avant-garde designers, the jury includes EVE/ITS Director Barbara Franchin, UK HR Gucci Group Manager Kat Nadj, Senior Fashion Editor of Vogue Italia Sara Maino and Creative Centre Coordinator at Diesel Vladimiro Baldin.

We simply can’t wait to see which participants of the ‘Confederation of Fantastic Voyagers’ will cut it. We have attached several extracts from the creative projects. The finalists are:
