Prestigious Spotted Award winner announced ahead of Top Drawer A/W19

Prestigious Spotted Award winner announced ahead of Top Drawer A/W19 Having become a much-anticipated and loved feature of the show, Top Drawer is thrilled to announce the winner of this season’s Spotted Award. After much deliberation—and based on the originality, innovation and commercial viability of the brand— the award’s panel of expert judges has named the winner as Be for Change, creators of stylish upcycled leather goods.


Following the maxim that 'Waste is a Failure in Creativity', Ana Catarina Ferreira Carneiro set up Be for Change to tackle the growing resources problem, sourcing materials wasted at industrial level and creating goods made to last.


Of the London-based company, Sam Hood—Founder of Amara said, “Both the idea and the end product are strong. Turning an unwanted raw material into a viable product is a great idea commercially and environmentally.”


Echoing similar sentiments, Emily Cuthbert—Head of Product at Wolf & Badger said, “The products are well-considered and using surplus fabrics to make creative accessories is a brilliant concept. Be for Change is a brand built on values and their focus on minimising waste is commendable.”


Following their win, Be for Change will receive a complimentary stand at a future edition of Top Drawer, as well as a range of one-to-one mentoring sessions from leading design and retail specialists. These include: Patricia Van Den Akker, Founder of The Design Trust; Rosey Blackmore, Merchandise Director for Tate Enterprises; Madeleine Furness, Business Development Office at Cockpit Arts; Laura Jane Boast, Founder of Design Giving; Ella Doran, Founder of Ella Doran Design Ltd; Victoria Suffield, Founder of The Hambledon.

Further representing the variety and skill seen within the show’s Spotted sector, the panel also named three runners-up, who too will benefit from expert one-to-one mentoring sessions.
