Now in its second year, the reimagined honor was originally dreamed up in 1938 by Carrie Marcus Neiman and Stanley Marcus to honor breakthrough talent in fashion from across the globe. Keep reading to discover this year’s honorees, the latest additions to a list that includes more than 150 extraordinary icons who have shaped the essence of style and industry.

The first female Creative Director of women’s haute couture, ready-to-wear, and accessories collections for Dior, Maria Grazia Chiuri is celebrated for advancing the historic French house and ushering in a new era of luxury created by women, for women. She joins the ranks of more than 150 inspiring talents who have received the award—including Christian Dior himself, who was honored in 1947. During her eight years at the helm, Chiuri has affected transformative change, deftly continuing Monsieur Dior’s legacy while championing female empowerment and creative representation through her thoughtful leadership and expansive vision of modern femininity.

In just a few short years, Schiaparelli Artistic Director Daniel Roseberry has captured the attention of fashion insiders, notable tastemakers, Hollywood, and the culture at large, thanks to his visionary designs for the storied Parisian couturier. Masterfully bridging the gap between couture and ready-to-wear, Roseberry shares founder (and fellow Neiman Marcus Award recipient in 1940) Elsa Schiaparelli’s love of surrealism and passion for innovation. To that end, he has become known for resurrecting and reinterpreting some of the Maison’s most beloved codes, creating wearable works of art for a new generation of fashion enthusiasts.

Simon Porte Jacquemus launched his eponymous label at just 19 years old. In the decade and a half since then, the self-taught creative has forged his own path as an independent—and highly original—designer. The industry has taken note of his imaginative approach to design and playful collections filled with distinctive pieces. Ever the innovator, Jacquemus is also known for his inventive viral fashion moments and marketing campaigns. Among these are his iconic runway presentations staged in dramatic locations throughout his home region of France, as well as the whimsical, memorable shop designs and videos showing supersized iterations of his signature bags in unexpected places.
