The ANDAM fashion prize has reverted to a jury made up of 25 fashion professionals and other industry insiders, as opposed to 29 in 2015. The fashion prize was founded in 1989 by Nathalie Dufour, as a joint initiative with the Culture and Communication Ministry and the DEFI, to support young designers. Its jury, as usual, has been changed by 30%.
