The designers with the 23 shortlisted labels come from around the world (the expected fashion capitals of New York, London and Paris, but also Copenhagen; Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and Tehran, among others) and have a chance to win 300,000 euros ($326,000) and a year of mentorship from the well-oiled LVMH machine.

As a staffer in the White House Office of Public Liaison during the Reagan administration, I spent my days trying to make headway against a well-oiled Sandinista propaganda machine that was aided by liberal members of Congress, a compliant media, and groups such as the National Council of Churches that should have known better.
