Dos Excellent Awards per a les nostres alumni a la gran final dels Hempel Awards 2025 | Distincions

Abril Molins i Ada Martínez, alumni del nostre Grau en Disseny de Moda , han estat reconegudes amb dos Excellent Awards a la 33a edició de Hempel Award, el concurs internacional per a joves dissenyadors organitzat per la China Fashion Association.

Totes dues van presentar les seves col·leccions a la gran final del certamen, celebrada a la ciutat de Hangzhou, on van destacar entre els 33 finalistes de tot el món per la sensibilitat conceptual i la maduresa creativa de les seves propostes. El tema d’aquesta edició era Topophilia - Neighbor, una reflexió sobre els vincles emocionals que establim amb els llocs que habitem.

No et perdis els projectes de les nostres alumni:

Abril Molins – Ebbing

Topophilia — a place felt, not seen. A sun-warmed scent, rain on wood, a fading warmth. Memory as tide, softness as vessel. What slips away shimmers. What we hold, endures.

Ada Martínez – Átame, Donna

My collection is the reflection of my emotional journey. Each piece embodies a “place” where my heart has lived and grown.

Italy: I dreamed of an elegant, romantic man with a seductive accent. Yet reality taught me that this ideal could also wound. For me, Italy blends refined lace and sheer layers that reveal disillusionment.

1990s Manhattan: amid bright lights and bold styles, I found my voice. Each look is a declaration of freedom, an homage to Donna and my own rebellion against the norm.

My singlehood: it lives in the emotional filter of Valentino the dog. I learned that loving is also choosing. These details — pins, embroidery, symbols — stand for my strength to decide what I deserve.

So, my collection doesn’t just dress bodies — it tells my story: idealization, discovery, conscious selection. It’s an intimate map I wear.
