villa Noailles, Hyères
The 40th edition of the International festival of fashion, photography and accessories - Hyères, will take place between Thursday 16th and Saturday 18th October 2025 at the villa Noailles. The exhibitions will be open to the public until January 11th 2026.
Since 1986, the festival has promoted and supported young international fashion designers, since 1997 a competition has also existed for emerging photographers and, since 2016, a competition also recognises young fashion accessory designers. The festival is acknowledged as the oldest fashion competition aimed at young professionals. Several prizes are awarded to the competing designers thanks to grants provided by the festival’s partners who commit, together with the festival, to provide long term support. Practical assistance is provided
right from the selection stage as well as during a period of two years in various domains: financing, production, workmanship, materials, production, legal, media, exhibitions, workshops and residencies.
Once again in 2025, the faithful partners of the Festival are committed to support the next generation of designers: CHANEL, le19M, the 7L Bookstore, Première Vision, LVMH, Hermès, American Vintage, la Fédération de la Haute Couture et de la Mode, DEFI, L’Atelier des Matières, Sheriff Projects, Kitten, Alliance For European Flax-Linen & Hemp, Kering, Sterling International…
Throughout the festival, whose detailed program you will find below, juries, artists, 2024 winners, partners and finalists will host encounters around the scheduled exhibitions.
