Presented by the Association Nationale pour le Développement des Arts de la Mode, it has been recognised as a benchmark for designers, fashion professionals, and members of the international press, and as a pathway for young designers hoping to enter the Paris Fashion Week.Prêt-à-Porter Spring 2012 Yiqing Yin , A Susan Tabak article
