Event: Triumph Inspiration Award 2012

Last Thursday I was invited to the 5th edition of the Triumph Inspiration Award 2012. The show was presented by Veronique De Kock (She was also the model for the press pictures from the designs). We were welcomed by a performance of a Chinese dragon. The theme this year was 'Dragon and Butterflies'. So the tone was immediately set.

The winner of this year was Michael Aerts with his creation 'Fallen Angels'. He gets 1000 euros and his design will be hanging in the Triumph Stores. Also he gets a ticket to Shanghai for the international final of the Triumph Inspiration Award.

The winner of the public vote was Alice Topart with her creation 'FlyGons' and Laurence Mattheys won the press price with 'Ma Petite Fantaise'.

Thank you O Sérieux! for the invite!
