Fashion trade show Premium Berlin has announced the designers that will take home a Young Designers Award in the categories of womenswear, menswear, accessories and activewear. 


Milano 140 has been recognised in the menswear category - PREMIUM


Winners Twins Florence, Milano 140, Manfredi Manara and P.E Nation will have the opportunity to present their collections to key industry players at the fair’s June edition, and their designs will be introduced to consumers at Galeries Lafayette in Berlin.

It’s a B2B/B2C approach designed to nurture and promote new designer businesses. Recipients will also receive bespoke business advice and will be included in Premium’s international press releases.

Italian designer Linda Calugi has won the womenswear award for her Twins Florence brand, which has been described as “above all radical, feminine and expressive”.

Milano 140 and its founders Michele Canziani, Stefano Ghidotti and Lorenzo Torchio have been recognised in the menswear category.

Shoe designer Manfredi Manara has been honoured with the accessories award for his delicate creations, which use feminine details such as lace, tassels and fluffy pom-poms to create shoes that every woman would want to wear.

Finally, P.E Nation has won the new activewear title. With 80’s influences and unexpected twists, the brand captures the spirit of our times and takes sportswear into the realm of the everyday.
