Music and dancing, excitement and relaxation, fast fashion and slow fashion are some of the many facets of the theme “Rhythm” of the European Fashion Award FASH 2014. The advisory board of the Stiftung der Deutschen Bekleidungsindustrie (German Fashion Industry Foundation) agreed to this rather broadly interpretable scope for the competition.
In addition, the advisory board and the board of directors decided to move the official award ceremony organized by the organization founded in Munich in 1978 to Berlin. “The European Fashion Award FASH continues to expand. An award presentation during the Berlin Fashion Week in January 2014 is not just a logical consequence, it is also the desire of a lot of students to present their projects in one of the world’s most exciting fashion capitals,” explained Tobias Gröber, Chairman of the Board of Directors.
