ITS Contest 2022 / A word from finalists, past and present

ITS, in the words of finalists from several different editions attending the 20th anniversary last September. ITS Contest is an international award for emerging designers set up in Trieste in 2002, open for all young fashion, accessories and jewellery designers who believe in their ideas despite everything. It navigates the global creative currents to discover and promote talent, offering career opportunities and preserving creativity for future generations. It logs changes and innovations tracing the evolution of contemporary fashion, building a picture of how the surrounding environment profoundly influences today’s young designers, enabling them to anticipate and predict future scenarios. A wide number of ITS finalists went on to re-shape the fashion industry, like Demna (Creative Director at Balenciaga), Matthieu Blazy (Creative Director at Bottega Veneta) and Alithia Spuri-Zampetti (Associate Head of Design Alexander McQueen) Discover more about ITS Contest 2022: https://itsweb.org/its-contest/ Discover the finalists: https://itsweb.org/its-contest/the-ark-of-creativity/#thefinalists Discover the winners: https://itsweb.org/its-contest/the-ark-of-creativity/#thewinners Discover more about ITS: https://itsweb.org
