Are you young, talented and dreaming of your own fashion label?

If so, don’t miss out on an outstanding opportunity as ELLE and Mr Price join forces in launching your career with the ELLE Rising Star Design Award for 2013.

Entries open on 20 May 2013 and entry forms and more information are available in the June issue of ELLE and online on www.elle.co.za. 

Not only will the winner be given the opportunity to launch his or her own fashion label, but an extensive mentoring programme will offer invaluable fashion and business knowledge that one needs to succeed in the competitive and dynamic world of fashion.

According to Jackie Burger, ELLE’s Editor, the Rising Star Design Award was conceptualised to satisfy the need to identify and nurture young design talent and to offer valuable experience to succeed in the fashion world.

“The competition and the collaboration with Mr Price, one of SA’s biggest fashion retailers, is a perfect fit for ELLE which is recognised as one of the world’s leading fashion titles and authorities”, concludes Jackie.

The winner will also receive personal coaching by a business expert from the Gordon Institute of Business Science (GIBS) and two weeks’ fashion inspiration at ELLE’s Cape Town office with Editor Jackie Burger and her fashion team.
