The ANDAM jury met on Monday 30 June at IFM Paris to select the winners of the 2025 competition. The 11 finalists individually presented their strategic and creative projects to the 33 members of the jury. Among the 2025 winners were Belgians Meryll Rogge and Sarah Levy!
Meryll Rogge awarded the Jury Grand Prix
Meryll Rogge began her fashion design studies in 2005 at the Royal Academy of Antwerp. In 2008 she left school to pursue her dream job, joining Marc Jacobs’ design team in New York. As a women’s collection designer, she had the opportunity to contribute to some of his most iconic collections. Nearly seven years later she returned to Antwerp to become head of women’s design at Dries Van Noten.
In 2020, the creation of her own brand, Meryll Rogge, was a natural evolution of her accomplishments and ambitions. Desiring to express something more personal she established her studio near her hometown of Ghent. Laureate of the Belgian Fashion Awards Designer of the Year 2024 Award, her career has once again been rewarded with the ANDAM Jury Grand Prix 2025. With an funding of 300.000 euros and Sidney Toledano as his mentor, she has a bright future ahead of her.
Sarah Levy remporte le Prix de l’Accessoire
After 10 years of theoretical and practical activity in architecture, Sarah Levy engaged in 2016 in a reflection on the uses of accessories. Her first collection, for which she was awarded the Public prize at the Hyères Festival in 2019, adopts an experimental approach to accessories, inspired by our contemporary behaviours.
This project evolved in the launch of the brand SARAHLEVY which is supported by WBDM in the frame of the Fashion Programme. Sarah also collaborates as a freelance designer with brands such as Marine Serre, Patou Hermès or Givenchy. Sarah was already awarded Accessory Designer of the Year 2023 at the Belgian Fashion Awards. She is the winner of the ANDAM 2025 Accessories Prize, with a cash prize of 100.000 euros and mentoring from experts.
Each year, through its five prizes, the ANDAM Fashion Award offers financial and logistical support to fashion designers and entrepreneurs chosen after a selection process lasting several months, thus ensuring the vitality and sustainability of the creative fashion industry.
