The Fashion Fund

Step inside the fast-paced and competitive world of high fashion in Ovation's new original series, The Fashion Fund . Follow Vogue magazine's legendary editor-in-chief, Anna Wintour, as she and the Council of Fashion Designers of America take aspiring designers on the journey of a lifetime—the competition for Fashion Fund Designer of the Year. Each week, designers from 10 emerging labels are put to the test through increasingly challenging steps of the competition. Judges like Diane von Furstenberg and top-level executives from Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus and more, determine who wins the ultimate prize of $300,000 and a one-year mentorship with an industry expert. It will take every ounce of vision, skill and savvy to make one winner's fashion dreams come true.
