Before starting today my editorial of the Paris Haute Couture Show by Christian Dior, I'd love to start with the 1st of a series of editorials to showcase you a competition of very talented young designers -
The international competition MIFUR Remix 2011 Award at Milan, Italy, which will be held for the occasion of the MIFUR International Fur And Leather Exhibition from 6th to 9th March, 2011.
The Competition
The MIFUR Remix competition was introduced 2003 by the International Fur Trade Federation (IFTF) in collaboration with MIFUR, the Milan based international fur and leather exhibition. The competition aims to encourage, inspire and support young designers as they develop and explore their relationship with fur, as well as giving them an opportunity to showcase their innovative designs and international audiance. Since 2010 IFTF introduced to REMIX a new fourth prize category, the special OA (Origin Assured) Award. This award recognized designers who exclusively used the Origin Assured furs in their design.
