• Anthony Vaccarello on winning this year’s prestigious ANDAM award for fashion design, which comes with a $290,000 cash prize: “I was totally shocked to win … I didn’t expect it because all the other contenders had better texts and speeches to explain what they wanted to do. But I think people liked the three dresses I presented for the next collection.”
