Fashion Trust Arabia announced on Saturday night the winners of its 2025 awards in Doha, with Moroccan Youssef Drissi’s label Late for Work taking out the coveted ready-to-wear designer award.
The Fashion Trust Arabia — a non-profit fund supporting emerging design talent from the Middle East and North Africa — also named Saudi-based Ziyad Albuainain the winner of the evening wear category, alongside Morocco’s Leila Roukni, recognised for her label Talel in accessories. Meanwhile, Paris-based Egyptian Farah Radwan received the jewellery prize for her brand Fyr.
The winning designers in these four categories will receive grants of between $100,000 and $200,000. The winners will also benefit from a one-year mentoring program with The Bicester Collection, and their designs will be stocked at Harrods and Ounass for one season.
Other winners of the trust’s seventh awards edition included Bahrain-born, Switzerland-raised designer Alaa Alaradi for the Franca Sozzani Debut Talent award, and Bahraini sisters Dalal and Fatema Alkhaja, who took out the Fashion Tech Award for their brand Touchless.
Indian designer Kartik Kumra was presented with this year’s guest country award, for his label Kartik Research, while fashion veteran Zuhair Murad was awarded the Trailblazer Award.
Fashion matriarch Muiccia Prada was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award, “for her profound impact on style, culture, and innovation.”
The season’s winners were chosen from a select 18 emerging designers by a panel of judges including supermodels Gisele Bundchen, Natalia Vodianova, and Paloma Elsesser; and designers Viktor & Rolf, Guram Gvasalia, Rabih Kayrouz, Duran Lantik, Christian Louboutin, Zuhair Murad, Stefano Pilati, Francesco Risso, Daniel Roseberry, Veronica Leoni of Calvin Klein, Arnaud Vaillant and Sébastien Meyer from Coperni, and Giambattista Valli.
