Marie-Adam Leenaerdt received the ANDAM Grand Prize on July 1. The announcement took place in the gardens of the Palais Royal in Paris.
Alexandre Mattiussi, founder and creative director of AMI Paris, revealed the winner during the 37th edition of the awards. Leenaerdt, a Belgian designer, previously reached the finals in 2024 for both ANDAM and the LVMH Prize shortly after launching her brand.
The prize includes 300,000 euros along with a year of mentoring from Mattiussi, who also served as jury president. This marks Leenaerdt's first major win in the competition.
Additional awards were presented at the event. Pauline Dujancourt received the Special Prize. Anthony Calydon won the Pierre Bergé Prize, and Philéo Landowski took the Accessories Prize, each accompanied by 100,000 euros and mentorship support.
