For more than 20 years, chaired by Pierre Bergé, directed by Nathalie Dufour and backed by the Ministry of Culture and the DEFI, ANDAM has been identifying and promoting the most promising talents in contemporary fashion, in the process contributing to the vitality and international prestige of the Paris fashion scene. This year the ANDAM FASHION AWARDS have attained a total endowment
of €220,000 thanks to the loyal support of the association’s partners: L’Oréal Professionnel, the Pierre Bergé Yves Saint-Laurent Foundation, LVMH, the Gucci Group, Longchamp, Galeries Lafayette, Saks Fifth Avenue (Middle East), Only The Brave (represented by Renzo Rosso) and Hudson’s Bay Company.
Under the leadership of chairwoman Carine Roitfeld and director Nathalie Dufour, the 2010 judges panel unites Alber Elbaz, Hilary Alexander, Jean-Pierre Simon, Sarah Lerfel, Paul Benyamine, Jefferson Hack, Virginie Mouzat, Pamela Golbin, Gene Krell, Humberto Leon and Jean-Jacques Picart. After studying all of the submissions, this panel of experts has selected the six finalists for the 2010 awards based on their creative accomplishments and potential for development.

The six nominees’ projects will be presented during the National Commission sessions, to be held in late June. After due deliberation, the judges will select the winner(s) by simple majority vote.
