“Having spent a week in Shanghai at the China Europe International Business School, thanks to the 100% scholarship which I had won as a part of the CEIBS Summer Pre-MBA Boot Camp Challenge, I was able to witness firsthand and experience life, business, and education at one of the best-ranked business schools in the Eastern world.”

Jury’s appraisal: Idan Yoav excels with an expressive costume design that convincingly combines tradition and modernity, as well as radiating an overflowing lust for life. The very independent silhouettes work well, the quilts and embroideries are of very high quality. In keeping with his career and training as an artist, professional dancer and fashion designer in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Paris, London and Berlin, Idan Yoav is able to virtuously combine a wide variety of influences into a coherent and mature artistic achievement and also justify it. – Member of the jury Joachim Schirrmacher, Creative Consultant

Jury’s appraisal: Viola Schmidt impresses with a purposeful creativity and a good limitation of ideas. Despite diverse inspirations and her wide range of excellently implemented techniques, she achieves a very coherent overall picture. Her qualification as a master tailor is evident in the very accurate craftsmanship and the coherent fits. Her beautiful portfolio is very neatly presented and easy to follow, making you want to see more of her work. Qualities that are much needed in the fashion industry. – Member of the jury Mela Bauer, Managing Director Fashionagency Melagence
