IN A FEW WORDS

Latin American Fashion Awards is an unprecedented global platform founded by bona fide fashion legends Constanza Etro and Silvia Argüello to celebrate the most outstanding Latin American Talent in the world and honor the region’s heritage.

For the first time ever, the fashion industry came together to celebrate local and diasporic Latin American talent. The long-awaited First Edition of Latin American Fashion Awards, held in the Dominican Republic on November 4th, 2023, marked a milestone for Latin American Talent worldwide. Together, we succeeded in an astonishing 2.8 billion International Press Reach and impacted the trajectory of each one of our Winners, across 14 categories, who amplified their careers on the global scene. 

Latin American Fashion Awards Second Edition, taking place in the Caribbean Hot Spot of Dominican Republic on November 2025, will reunite Celebrities, Top-Tier Fashion Industry Leaders, International Jury Members, Influencers, International Press and Creatives from all over the world to support Latin American Talent revolutionizing the global fashion industry.

The unparalleled biennial celebration, shining a spotlight on the best Latin American talent, includes two years of International events with global media impact.

2024, a year dedicated to the promotion and business growth of the best Latin American Talent in the highest international spheres, includes exclusive events during Milano Fashion Week leading into the 2025 Award Ceremony and three day celebrations in the Dominican Republic.

Thanks to the valuable support received from our partners and the experience acquired together, we are looking forward to a remarkable Second Edition.

“Latin America has been the birthplace of many talented designers, artists, brands and trends throughout the years. It’s time to celebrate and honor their work, embrace diversity and promote our talent. Thank you all for embarking on this journey together.”
