Graduate Fashion Week announces new sponsorship and award from Superdry for 2018
Graduate Fashion Week has announced that renowned British brand Superdry is partnering for the first time, sponsoring a new award: The Superdry Outerwear Award. Superdry is known for its mix of vintage Americana and Japanese-inspired graphics with a British style. As outerwear specialists, it was a natural fit for the brand to sponsor Graduate Fashion Week’s new award which will be judged on 6 June and announced on the catwalk at the famous Gala Award Show that same evening. As one of GFW’s newest awards, the retailer will honour the winning graduate with a £1,000 prize and a further £500 to the winning graduate’s university. The Superdry Outerwear Award will be awarded to the graduate that shows a clear relatability in their signature style. Superdry will be looking for someone with a keen eye for branding and intricacy and a passion for innovation, detail and tailoring. As part of their new involvement within Graduate Fashion Week, Superdry will also have a stand onsite throughout the event holding influential events and masterclasses. They will give the opportunity for graduates to receive career advice on a ‘drop by basis’ with their portfolio and CVs. In addition, there will be recruitment opportunities for graduates to explore and apply for within the company. Superdry will also be hosting engaging talks within the GFW Talk Live! studio with key industry and team members.
