ITS#FASHION COMPETITION

This is the core of International Talent Support. Throughout the years it has become an established and world renowned competition.

In the beginning ITS was only a fashion competition and fashion is still a big part of our DNA. It's also the starting point for the development of the other contest areas.

We would have never gotten this far without the support of the major brand DIESEL. They have been with ITS from the very beginning and give us tangible support, also through the assignment of the Diesel Award, an important prize for one of the fashion competition finalists.
ITS is and will always be a contest for young fashion designers and recent graduates from fashion schools the world over. Because of the closely connected accessories competition, the fashion area of ITS has become even more specific and concentrates only on clothing design.

With the launch of the new edition of ITS comes the opening of enrolment in the fashion competition. The deadline to enrol is 25 March 2010. On 15-16 April the pre-selections take place and the finalists are selected. The ITS#FASHION finals are in July.

About 10 finalists will be selected to come to Trieste, Italy in mid-July 2010 for a collective fashion show. ITS#NINE will be a showcase of the highest expressions of creativity from the most reputable schools on the planet.

ITS is a real bridge between fashion schools and the fashion industry, and all of the work placements, internships and special projects granted to the finalists after the event prove it. Have a look at the past finalists now page! We collaborate regularly for work placements with brands like Diesel (of course), Antonio Marras, MaxMara, John Galliano, Armani and Viktor & Rolf, only to mention a few. Major industry players also offer their support. Vertice boutique in Turin has joined our support philosophy as well: a finalist will be chosen to display their collection in the shop windows during the important international art fair "Artissima", held every year in Turin, Italy in November. The make-up for the catwalk show will be offered by Patricia Milton.
