French-born womenswear designer Sophie Théallet follows in the footsteps of Alexander Wang, Rogan, Doo-Ri, Trovata, and Proenza Schouler, winning this year’s coveted CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund award.
As winner, Théallet will receive $200,000 and, if the enormous success of the past five winners is any indication, tons of great press and a bright design future.
We love Théallet’s optimistic, classy-yet-sexy collection, and we can’t wait to see what else is up her sleeve.
