The winner of the LYCRA® Future Designers award at the WGSN Global Fashion Awards 2013 is Lucy Gardener from the UK, announced on 30th October 2013.
Lucy Gardener has won the chance to work with expert mentors at INVISTA and overall consultancy. In addition Lucy will receive fabrics with LYCRA® fibre, a package to help with the development of a collection to help kick-start her career.
Lucy Gardener said, “I am absolutely thrilled to win this prestigious prize. LYCRA® fibre is such a well-known brand across the world and the fibre is so versatile for designs, no matter what apparel you are incorporating the fibre in. I can’t wait to see my designs come to life and to work with INVISTA in getting the collection in front of buyers, designers, stores and consumers. This is one of the most exciting things that have happened to me!”
