YKK Its Seven Accessories Competition

Together with the fashion competition that is the core of ITS, ITS#ACCESSORIES completes the spectrum on the most creative young talents in fashion with a dedicated contest for all accessories design graduates and young accessories designers.

The winner of the YKK Award will receive € 10,000 and a professional photographer will shoot an image of the winning YKK accessory to be used for promotional purposes.
