DHL/IMG Fashion top designers now poised to boost their exports
DHL and IMG Fashion have announced four winners of this year's inaugural DHL Exported season, paving the way for the recipients to drive growth overseas by showcasing their collections at the world's leading fashion week events.
The four designers are Italy's Francesca Liberatore, Turkey's Hakan Yildirum, Henry Holland from the UK and the duo Nicholas and Christopher Kunz from the US.
"We are proud by the amount of applications we received and even more so about the collections' quality and designers' creativity. Our juries in London, Milan, New York and Tokyo each had tough decisions to make," said senior vice president corporate brand marketing Arjan Sissing.
The DHL Exported shows will take place this September and next February at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York, London Fashion Week and Milan Fashion Week, as well as in October 2014 and March 2015 at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Tokyo, a company statement said.
