The Dior Photography And Visual Arts Award For Young Talents An Initiative By Dior Beauty In Partnership With Celebrated Arts Centre Luma_arles And Photography School Ecole Nationale Superieure De La Photographie Returns For Its Sixth Edition. Its Aim: To Discover And Spotlight Emerging Image Makers Who Are Primarily Students And Alumni Of Arts And Photography Schools Around The World. Here, Three Members From This Year's Jury Share With Keng Yang Shuen Their Thoughts On The Next Generation Of Image Makers And How They Are Keeping The Industry Hopeful.

Think of the Dior Photography and Visual Arts Award for Young Talents as a megaphone for emerging image makers. It was started in 2018 by the beauty arm of the French luxury maison with Luma Arles and the Ecole Nationale Superieure de la Photographie school – two of the world’s most pre‑eminent arts institutions located in the photography mecca that is Arles in the south of France – as partners.

Every year since, students and the alumni of arts and photography schools all over the world are encouraged to take part and submit photos and videos based on the recurrent theme “Face to Face”. (A total of 230 applicants were received this year.) What they stand to walk away with: the top prize of 10,000 euros (about S$14,700) and a creative commission from Dior Beauty – and a shot at being discovered.

After all, the award’s jury has always been made up of the who’s who in the fashion, beauty and arts industries. Names on the board in 2023 include Brazilian fashion photographer Rafael Pavarotti, whose rich colours and bold compositions have scored him campaigns with the likes of Dior; Simon Baker, the director of Maison Europeenne de la Photographie – a top centre for contemporary photographic art in Paris; and Dior Makeup’s masterful creative and image director Peter Philips.

STORY OF THE DECADE

The French house of Dior was thinking long-term before the rest of fashion even caught up. Cue its Dior Lady Art series: an annual project that represents the bag it gets its name from, the Lady Dior, through the eyes of acclaimed artists from around the world. This year marks its 10th edition — proof that the endurance of an icon doesn't lie in hype drops, but in cultural exchange and creative freedom. Keng Yang Shuen takes a closer look at this milestone collection.

CINEMA PARADISO

The house of Chanel has been a committed champion of the film world since founder Gabrielle Chanel started dressing the actresses from the United Artists studio at the request of American producer Samuel Goldwyn in the 1930s. Besides styling stars on screen and off, the brand has been an active supporter of international movie festivals, institutions and directors (local auteur Eric Khoo was one of them); has helped to restore classics such as the enigmatic Last Year at Marienbad (1961); and often draws inspiration from cinema. For Cruise 2025/26, it pays homage to the glamour of the silver screen as well as Coco Chanel's decades-spanning friendship with legendary Italian filmmaker Luchino Visconti. Here's an exclusive closeup look at the collection and the many ways it's coded la dolce vita.
