Delphine Arnault declares:

"The semi-final of the 11th LVMH Prize highlighted the diversity and richness of the candidates' creative approaches. The semi-finalists showed great expertise in terms of craftsmanship and a strong commitment to sustainability. The finalists' designs range from entirely hand-made collections to eveningwear, and included upcycled designs.

Furthermore, two former semi-finalists of the Prize, Duran Lantink and Niccolò Pasqualetti, have reached the final.

I am very grateful to the Experts for their involvement in this event.

Finally, I'm delighted to welcome Phoebe Philo and Pharrell Williams to our remarkable Jury. The Jury and I will be joined by the eight shortlisted designers at the final on 10th September at the Louis Vuitton Foundation."
