Ready-to-Wear

The French Fashion Awards pridefully presents its Ready-to-Wear category. This is where practicality weaves together with creativity, where everyday fashion is transformed into extraordinary style statements. In this sphere, designers craft collections that blend wearability with innovation, making fashion accessible and relevant to daily life.

At the French Fashion Awards, we celebrate the designers who bring a touch of the extraordinary to everyday apparel. These creators set the trends that dominate wardrobes around the world, where the everyday becomes exceptional. It's a celebration of fashion that is as much about liveability as it is about style.

Deadlines & Fees

The French Fashion Awards invites designers at every stage of their creative process. Whether your designs are still in the conceptual phase, a work in progress, or fully realised masterpieces, they deserve a spot in the competition. In the award, each entry stands on its own merits – jurors evaluate individual pieces rather than entire portfolios. This approach underscores the significance of each submission, encouraging thoughtful and deliberate entry selection.

In a commitment to promoting financial inclusivity within the fashion community, the French Fashion Awards has established an affordable entry system. An annual administrative fee of $30 will be charged only for the first entry of the entire competition year to cover essential costs such as printing, mailing, and data management. This flat fee ensures that all participants, regardless of the number of entries submitted, bear the same reasonable cost, offering exceptional value, especially for those submitting multiple designs.
