Fool – courage to start. These young creators already have enough talent to work in prestigious homes, but jump in void creating their brand. They often work alone, either almost, and the artistic point of view, must be fluent in administrative, production, press. This requires courage, versatility, flexibility. An entrepreneurial spirit.

Are the film and fashion for the mission to understand developments in society?
Fool – The twelve years from the LVMH prize creation are proof of that. Each time its current. Today, artistic approaches are more comprehensive than the boundaries between sewing and sports clothes are blown in Virgil Ablon’s heirs …
