CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund announces 3 grand winners --

-- A first, without a runner-up


Aurora James of Africana-inspired ethical footwear line Brother Vellies; 
With Zendaya, both in Brother Vellies shoes, naturally
Jonathan Simkhai with his namesake womenswear label; 
Side by side with model Taylor Hill
and Rio Uribe for streetwear-focused Gypsy Sport 
With Fernanda Ly
bag the CFDA/V FF 12th edition's top prizes.


The three equal winners will each "receive $300,000 to invest in their respective labels, as well as a yearlong mentorship with an industry veteran."

Just a thought I thought: Simkhai and Uribe could be cousins, don't you think?


Congrats!
