The Vilcek Foundation is currently accepting applications for the 2026 Vilcek Foundation Prizes for Creative Promise in Fashion & Culture and Fashion & Design. These prizes are specifically geared towards immigrants under the age of 38 who have shown exceptional early-career achievements in the fashion industry. The foundation will award six $50,000 prizes to deserving individuals who have made significant contributions to the fields of Fashion & Design and Fashion & Culture.

Fashion is not just about clothing and accessories; it is a reflection of cultural shifts and serves as a powerful form of self-expression. Immigrants play a crucial role in enriching the fashion industry by bringing their unique traditions, perspectives, and styles to the forefront. The Vilcek Foundation recognizes the impact that immigrants have on the fashion world and aims to highlight their contributions through these prestigious prizes.

One past winner, Siki Im, who won the 2015 Vilcek Prize for Creative Promise in Fashion, expressed how winning the prize was a personal milestone and a recognition of the unique perspective he brings as an immigrant in the fashion industry. Im emphasized the importance of celebrating the talent, creativity, and resilience of immigrants who continue to shape and push the United States forward.

The Vilcek Foundation has established two fashion categories to honor immigrants working in the arts and humanities. Immigrants under the age of 38 who work as designers, environmental and technology designers, material innovation experts, makeup artists, hair stylists, writers, researchers, curators, museum professionals, stylists, or image makers are encouraged to apply for these prizes.

Applications for the 2026 Vilcek Foundation Prizes for Creative Promise in Fashion are open until June 9, 2025. To learn more about the prizes and to submit an application, interested individuals can visit the Vilcek Foundation website at vilcek.org.

The foundation’s goal is to bring awareness to the ways in which fashion, and the immigrants working in fashion-related fields, contribute to making society better. By recognizing and supporting young immigrant talents in the fashion industry, the Vilcek Foundation hopes to showcase the diversity and innovation that immigrants bring to the table.
