The Stella Awards and the winner of the 100,000 EUROS Swiss Textiles prize is Bruno Pieters
Dear Shaded Viewers,
For the fourth year in a row a Belgian designer has taken home the 100,000 EUROS Swiss Textile prize. First Belgian to win the award was Raf Simons and it pretty much changed the direction of his life, career wise anyway. When I was the president of the jury the prize went to Haider Ackermann and last year the prize went to Christian Wijnants. Something in the water over there maybe...
