Fashion industry advocacy group and career incubator Fashion Group International (FGI) has revealed its official 2023 Rising Star Awards finalists with a new slate of inclusive fashion, beauty, and related categories. The 27th annual ceremony – a ticketed, red carpet luncheon – is set to take place in New York City on May 8, 2023, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., at The Lighthouse at Chelsea Piers.
“It is our honor to welcome the fashion industry to the FGI Rising Star Awards each year as we gather to celebrate some of the most promising new talents in the fashion, beauty, and business sectors,” said Maryanne Grisz, FGI President and CEO. “FGI has always sought to support the industry and our members, whether well-established or emerging talent. Over the years, past FGI Rising Star honorees have risen to become some of the leading voices in the business, and I cannot wait to cheer on our finalists in their next successes.”
