The eponymously named, London-based label is already being exalted by industry somebodies, deemed crush worthy for its measurably exaggerated, tulle-shocked silhouettes. Goddard\u2019s fabric pageantry has its place, that place being somewhere between a well-mannered soir\u00e9e and all the frivolity of playing dress-up. Goddard, who studied at Central Saint Martins, launched her label in 2014 and grabbed a British Emerging Talent title at the 2016 Fashion Awards as a result of her sensibilities, which she brings to life when she shows. Look no further than her Fall collection that turned the Tate Modern\u2019s Switch House extension into a post dinner affair with trays of martinis and all the trimmings of eat-drink-and-be-merry, \u201cWe always try to create a world, whatever that may be, a sandwich factory or a dinner party. It isn\u2019t an after thought, when I\u2019m designing I imagine where the person in the dress is, what they are doing, drinking or eating. I want the models and the audience to feel like they have entered a space and have been removed from everything else, immerse themselves in the world we have made, even if its just for ten minutes.\u201d The shows are styled and cast by Molly\u2019s sister, Alice Goddard, \u201cWe have a good idea of how things will be styled and what kind of person will be wearing it pretty early on in the make process, which I find helps create the individual character or feeling we are going for.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"quote\">\n&#8220;When I\u2019m designing I imagine where the person in the dress is, what they are doing, drinking or eating.&#8221;\n  <\/div>\n<p>Her signature designs, dresses often of dollish proportions plucked from Fragonard\u2019s The Swing, bring fanciful to the everyday\u2013but balance, Goddard admits, \u201cManaging to make massive, almost unwearable show pieces and very wearable clothes all in one collection\u201d is crucial, \u201cbe creative and also practical!\u201d. Wisdom that hasn\u2019t stopped her from doing what she does best, feats of proportion, \u201cI like to see how much fabric we can get into one dress, to create the most and least volume,\u201d saying, \u201cIf a toile ends up looking like my sketch then I normally know its going to work. If we cant get it there in a couple goes it\u2019s normally scrapped or redesigned.\u201d Apart from her most dramatic pieces that have earned her major buzz with stylists, she\u2019s not only about the showstoppers, \u201cI do like things oversized\u2026but beyond that there a many other silhouettes in the collections and I\u2019m excited to develop these.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Goddard has certainly managed to garner the industry\u2019s attention with ambitious displays of fun and flounce, cut with serious skill, and if she takes home the prize, her next investment is straightforward\u2013\u201cAt the moment it would be staff\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"credits\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"separ\"><\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Job_1123.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"2667\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-51458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Job_1123.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Job_1123-1280x1707.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Job_1123-150x200.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"separ\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"small-12 columns\" id=\"thumbs\">\nThe LVMH 8 2017<\/p>\n<div id=\"introseries\">\n<h3>Presenting Models.com\u2019s exclusive spotlight on each of the eight finalists for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.lvmhprize.com\/\">2017 LVMH Young Fashion Designer Prize<\/a> in anticipation of their final presentation at the Fondation Louis Vuitton in Paris.<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<ul class=\"small-block-grid-2 medium-block-grid-8\" id=\"thumbsul\">\n<li id=\"thumb-ambush\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-ambush\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Ambushthumb1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/AmbushThumb2.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.1 &#8211; AMBUSH<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<li id=\"thumb-atlein\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-atlein\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Atleinthumb1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/AtleinThumb2.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.2 &#8211; ATLEIN<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<li id=\"thumb-cecilie\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-cecilie-bahnsen\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/CecilieThumb1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/CecilieTHumb.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.3 &#8211; CECILIE BAHNSEN<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<li id=\"thumb-jahkoy\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-jahnkoy\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Koza1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Koza2.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.4 &#8211; JAHNKOY<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<li id=\"thumb-kozaburo\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-kozaburo\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/NewThumb.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/NewThumb1.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.5 &#8211; KOZABURO<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<li id=\"thumb-marine\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-marine-serre\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Marine1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Marine2New.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.6 &#8211; MARINE SERRE<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<li id=\"thumb-molly\" class=\"thumbgray\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-molly-goddard\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Molly1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Molly2.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.7 &#8211; MOLLY GODDARD<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<li id=\"thumb-nabil\"><a href=\"\/mdx\/the-lvmh-8-nabil-nayal\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Last1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/\/i.mdel.net\/mdx\/i\/2017\/06\/Last2.jpg\" style=\"display:none\"\/><br \/>\n    LVMH 8<br \/>\n    PT.8 &#8211; NABIL NAYAL<br \/>\n  <\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div id=\"introseriestext\">\n<p>On June 16, LVMH will announce the winner of their 2017 Young Fashion Designer Prize, chosen from a pool of eight finalists: Ambush, Atlein, Cecile Bahnsen, Jahnkoy, Kozaburo, Marine Serre, Molly Goddard, and Nabil Nayal. First launched in November 2013, the LVMH Prize was created to help celebrate rising design talent and encourage their growth, with the winner receiving both a 300,000 euro grant and a year of technical and financial support from the LVMH Foundation\u2019s experts. These eight young designers from across the globe reflect the industry\u2019s international reach, demonstrating expansive visions in an era of ever-tightening horizons. As barriers go up across borders and the world turns inward, they offer a reassuring reminder that creativity is about confronting the foreign and finding yourself changed for the better.<\/p>\n<p>The winner will be selected by a jury comprised of some of fashion\u2019s most notable creators, from Marc Jacobs and Karl Lagerfeld to Riccardo Tisci and J.W. Anderson, overseen by LVMH\u2019s Delphine Arnault \u2014 a group that should have no trouble picking a standout talent. Victory will be sweet of course, but if past years are anything to go by, this is one prize where being nominated is truly an honor in and of itself.<\/p>\n<div class=\"introcredits\">\nPhotography by <a href='\/\/models.com\/people\/steven-yatsko'>Steven Yatsko<\/a> for Models.com<br \/>\nStylist <a href='\/\/models.com\/people\/ron-hartleben'>Ron Hartleben<\/a><br \/>\nMakeup <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/feride_uslu11\">Feride Uslu<\/a> (<a href='\/\/models.com\/agency\/MAM'>MAM<\/a>) using Uslu Airlines<br \/>\nHair <a href='\/\/models.com\/people\/shinya-nakagawa'>Shinya Nakagawa<\/a> (<a href='\/\/models.com\/agency\/ArtList-NY'>ArtList<\/a>)<br \/>\nManicure <a href='\/\/models.com\/people\/yukie-miyakawa'>Yukie Miyakawa<\/a><\/p>\n<p>    Art Direction Stephan Moskovic<br \/>\n    Editors Irene Ojo-Felix, Jonathan Shia &#038; Steven Yatsko<br \/>\n    Text by <a href='\/\/models.com\/people\/steven-yatsko'>Steven Yatsko<\/a><\/p>\n<p>    Models<br \/>\n    <a href='\/\/models.com\/models\/maeve-whalen'>Maeve Whalen<\/a>\n    <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"separ bottom\"><\/div>\n<p><script>\n$(\"[id^='thumb-']\").hover(function() {\n    $(this).find('img').toggle();\n});\n<\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Models.com spotlights the 8 LVMH Prize finalists<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":51588,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2130,2129,1538],"tags":[1826,2740,2911,1674,2910,2887,2523],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51373"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51373"}],"version-history":[{"count":21,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51373\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":51645,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51373\/revisions\/51645"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/51588"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51373"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51373"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/mdx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51373"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
