Through some bizarre coincidence, the British Fashion Council have announced a similar fund scheme for
emerging designers with the winner receiving £200,000 for their troubles.  Virtually the same as the CFDA Vogue Fund but in Blighty!

CFDA / Vogue Fund Nominees 2009

The Council of Fashion Designers in America and Vogue team up every year to provide an opportunity for budding male and female designers to submit designs for a competition set up for emerging artists.  A fund is set up so that the winner, receives a grant of $200,000 to help set up their business.

A few of you have asked about opportunities across the pond and this, it seems, is the best!

The winners will be announced on the 16th November, so I'll post more information on or around that date with details of how the nominees applied and 'emerged' so to speak.

Should be of some use!
