Yesterday in London, Hannah Jinkins was announced as the winner of the H&M Design Award 2016. Jinkins, a graduate from the Royal College of Art, London, was selected from eight finalists by an international jury that included amongst others Kate Bosworth, Olivier Rousteing and Nick Knight. As the H&M Design Award winner, Jinkins receives a one-year mentorship from H&M, a prize sum of \u20ac50,000 and the opportunity to develop her winning collection to be sold in selected H&M stores as well as online in autumn 2016.<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHannah is really brilliant. She has the ability to balance so many difficult things, like the raw with the refined, or something very grown up with something more youthful. I found choosing the winner of the H&M Design Award very difficult, because the calibre of the finalists is up there with the best in fashion,\u201d says Kate Bosworth.<\/font><\/p>\n

\u201cI was so impressed by Hannah\u2019s collection. It is very contemporary, with a real understanding of a woman\u2019s body. It feels like something very new in womenswear, which makes her such an exciting winner of the H&M Design Award 2016\u201d, says Ann-Sofie Johansson, creative advisor of H&M.<\/font><\/p>\n

\u201cHannah is amazing. She has her own unique vision. She has such strong energy, she\u2019s modern, young and really knows what she wants. She works with a tough fabric, yet somehow manages to make it sexy and glamorous at the same time,\u201d says Olivier Rousteing, creative director of Balmain.<\/font><\/p>\n

Eight finalists selected from 40 of the world\u2019s most respected design schools yesterday took part in a fashion show at The Orangery in Kensington Palace, London. Each finalist presented four looks from their graduation collections to an audience that included the jury and, for the first time, invited members of the global fashion media. <\/font><\/p>\n

24-year old Hannah Jinkins, from London, graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2015. Her collection created a balance between tough fabrics like raw denim and inner linings of silk. Her silhouettes are oversized yet feminine, showing a real understanding of the female body. <\/font><\/p>\n

\u201cI feel very honoured and proud to have won the H&M Design Award. When my name was announced, it was very surreal and I felt quite emotional. I want to start my own label, and winning the award means I can follow my dream,\u201d says Hannah Jinkins, winner of the H&M Design Award 2016.<\/font><\/p>\n

The H&M Design Award was founded in 2012, underlining H&M\u2019s strong commitment to the future of fashion. It is open to students and graduates of the world\u2019s most respected design colleges in 16 countries, with the winner each year chosen by a highly-respected jury of international fashion experts.

The eight selected finalists each won \u20ac5,000.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
