First Annual FASHION NET Awards Announced

Curated by some of fashion's most celebrated editors and opinion leaders, FASHION NET (http://www.fashion.net) introduced the world of fashion to the Internet when it launched in January 1995, now connecting premium fashion and luxury brands with over 2 million influential trendsetters and fashion-savvy consumers each year.

As it commemorates the 20th anniversary of its historic launch, FASHION NET is holding another world's first: the online-only FASHION NET Awards.

The FASHION NET Awards (http://www.fashion.net/awards), will be a celebration of excellence and vision in the fashion industry worldwide. The selection of the year's nominees and winners will be made by the FASHION NET Awards Committee, consisting of FASHION NET editors and leading fashion industry professionals.

"With the FASHION NET Awards, we will be recognizing the exceptional talent of innovators and influencers in fashion as we enter a new era," said Stig Harder, Founder (http://www.fashion.net/stig-harder). "Within the next few months and years, an increasingly omnipresent Internet will kindle an entirely new way of interacting with fashion, where changes in trends and tastes come about with the immediacy of a world where eventually nothing is offline."

About FASHION NET:

Founded in THE FALL of 1994 in Paris, France, FASHION NET became Internet's very first fashion site when it launched shortly after in January 1995. Along with sister site LUMIÈRE Magazine, it was the first online publisher to be officially granted permission to cover the fashion shows on the Internet by the Chambre Syndicale du Prêt-à-Porter des Couturiers et des Créateurs de Mode, the industry's regulating body. Now based in the US, FASHION NET has been prominently featured on all major search engines for nearly two decades and was in 2014 named among the top 100 .net websites in the world by Verisign and Entrepreneur Magazine.
