In doing so, it has underlined its ongoing commitment to helping young talent and promoting their innovative potential and ability to shape the future of the fashion and jewellery industry. Organised by CNA Federmoda, the competition is aimed at students in the last year of higher secondary education and students at postgraduate institutes and universities who were below the age of 25 on 31 December 2023.
The competition is divided into five product areas: clothing and knitwear; furs; underwear and resortwear; leather and footwear; and accessories (jewellery, ornamental items, eyewear).
