Fashion Scholarship Fund, FSF Live 2023

This year, FSF recognized Anna Wintour—chief content officer, Condé Nast, and global editorial director, Vogue—and Emma Grede—co-founder & CEO of Good American, founding partner of Skims and chairwoman of The Fifteen Percent Pledge—for their influence and impact on the industry.

The Fashion Scholarship Fund fosters the professional success of exceptional college students and recent graduates from all backgrounds as they seek out careers in the fashion industry.

The event built on the innovations from the previous year with a cocktail celebration bringing together the best of FSF’s network of 1,000+ supporters, industry leaders, alumni, educators, mentors — and most importantly all of our Class of 2023 Scholars. Each student had a dedicated panel summarizing their scholarship submission. Four finalists gave crafted TED Talk-style monologues about their work, with one scholar selected as the main scholarship winner.
