On April 8, the day of remembrance of the founder of the Fashion factory school of business education, applications for participation in the annual grant program named after Lyudmila Norosyan were opened. Lyudmila was the first in Russia to start producing fashionable clothes from high-tech knitwear and launched a course on creating a digital clothing brand. She always enthusiastically supported young designers and fashion entrepreneurs, sharing her experience, knowledge and contacts.

“Lyudmila passed away two years ago, but we, the Fashion Factory team, continue her mission - supporting the founders of fashion brands. This is not only about education, but also about the development of the community, innovative projects that are aimed at developing the industry and which were started by Lyudmila,” commented Operations Director Inna Gureeva.

Beginning fashion entrepreneurs who are still planning to create a brand or have already developed its concept will be able to take part in the program. Rules for participation and evaluation criteria are published on the project website. Based on the results of the competition, the jury, which included director and screenwriter Daria Norsoyan, chief editor of Setters Media Zhanel Kuandykova, jewelry designer Mikhail Baryshnikov, fashion journalist Yulia Vydolob and fashion editor of The Symbol website Anton Gulevsky, will provide three winners with grants for training at flagship course Fashion Impulse Pro.
