Welcome to the first episode of the LVMH Prize podcast, a conversation that takes you behind the scenes and into the minds of those shaping the future of fashion.

Joining us are two long-standing LVMH Prize experts, Julie Gilhart and Sarah Mower, who share their perspective on taking the leap, what they look for in emerging talent, and why designers shouldn’t wait for the “perfect” moment to apply.

Julie Gilhart is a fashion industry veteran and advisor who has played an important role in shaping and supporting the future of emerging talent.

Sarah Mower is a renowned fashion critic for Vogue US and a long-standing supporter of the next generation of designers. Together, Julie and Sarah have been members of the LVMH Prize international committee of experts since its very first edition.

A special thank you to Julie Gilhart and Sarah Mower for joining us for our first episode.
