Simon Porte Jacquemus, designer and brainchild of luxury fashion house Jacquemus, is getting his flowers once again, this time by the Couture Council of the Museum at FIT. The council of the iconic New York school is bestowing upon the innovator the Award for Artistry of Fashion during its annual luncheon sponsored by Nordstrom on September 4 at the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center. The council's board members Deena Aljuhani Abdulaziz, founding editor-in-chief of Vogue Arabia and founder of D'NA, and Sarah Wetenhall, president and owner of The Colony Palm Beach, will serve as co-chairs.
"I am really happy to receive the 2024 Couture Council Award for Artistry of Fashion supported by Nordstrom, it's a beautiful recognition for the brand and my team," says Jacquemus. "As an independent designer, I was always keen on being innovative and creative in the design of my collections and also in my communication. It's always about communicating and creating experiences with our community in a unique way."
