By creatives, for creatives
The European Fashion Award FASH is supported and founded by Messe München GmbH. The European Fashion Award FASH lives above all through private commitment: be it in the jury or in the organisation. The award for young creative talents is thus largely supported by experienced creatives.

SDBI – Promoting Fashion Talents since 1978
Internationaly, the European Fashion Award FASH is one of the most important awards for fashion students. It is offered by the not-for-profit Stiftung der Deutschen Bekleidungsindustrie (SDBI) – the German Fashion Industry Foundation. The foundation was set up in Munich in 1978, making it the oldest organisation in the world for the promotion of fashion students. The award-winning talents have outstanding career opportunities. They work for internationally renowned companies such as Adidas, Fila, Gucci, Hugo Boss, s.Oliver, Zalando and for designers such as Dries van Noten or Vivienne Westwood; some as senior designers or heads of design. They have often gone on to win numerous further awards.
