]]> The Most Accurate Predictions for the Investment Market in 2026 https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/the-most-accurate-predictions-for-the-investment-market-in-2026/ Thu, 08 Jan 2026 10:56:34 +0000 https://business.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=936675

The Most Accurate Predictions for the Investment Market in 2026

Qu Yan (Leo) recently wrote a detailed market outlook for 2026, focusing on trends across Canadian banking, U.S. equity valuations, MICs, crypto, and gold.

Given the current level of market uncertainty, many investors are reconsidering allocation strategies — this article breaks down key risks and opportunities in a clear, data-driven way.

As we look back at 2025, one thing is clear : Investors who placed their money in stocks, mutual funds, and ETFs generally enjoyed strong returns. Now that we’ve entered December, the full-year outlook still appears positive.

Meanwhile, recent earnings reports from Scotiabank and RBC reveal a significant boost driven by robust capital markets and wealth management activities. As Canada’s largest bank, RBC’s profit surged 29% to $5.4B CAD, while Scotiabank delivered $2.2B CAD in net profit.

These numbers highlight a key truth: Canada’s major banks—with their strong compliance frameworks and comprehensive wealth-management teams—continue to attract high-quality clients who need integrated financial services. For high-net-worth individuals in Canada, managing liquid assets through the banking system remains an excellent option, and current earnings reinforce this view.

Most retail wealth-management activities in Canada still take place within banks.

Why So Many Young Professionals Choose Banking ?

It’s no surprise that young people pursuing finance gravitate toward banks:

  • Clear career progression
  • Strong compliance and well-established platforms
  • Sticky, stable client relationships
  • Easier client acquisition
  • A broad environment to learn the fundamentals of the financial industry

Banks have the widest ecosystem among all financial institutions. That’s why I often encourage young professionals to grow their careers there. Working with diverse clients strengthens practical skills and deepens understanding of the core mechanics of Canadian finance.

Finance is an upstream industry—if you work within it, you gain wider access to information and resources. And as long as you stay committed, you can grow quickly. Banks also allow you to internalize Canada’s strict compliance standards, which is invaluable.

To be honest, I admire young people who have the chance to start in banks. For mid-career immigrants like me, however, entering a bank as a teller and restarting from the bottom isn’t an ideal fit. Bank roles also require several investment-related licenses in Canada, which can be a heavy burden at this stage of life.

Young people have time to study for exams like the CSC, CFP, CFA, FRM, accumulate experience, and rise over time. But by the time someone like me completes the same path, I’d likely be past 50. I want to achieve financial freedom earlier, not follow a long, linear career ramp again.

That’s why I didn’t pursue banking—not because I couldn’t, but because I couldn’t find a role that matched my experience. Banks often expect more from employees than corporate roles. In contrast, at my current lending institution, my skills and experience translate into value much faster, allowing me to contribute meaningfully and grow the company’s productivity.

For someone like me, leveraging accumulated expertise to create immediate value is the most efficient path.

Banking vs. Exempt Market Investing

Banks operate in the trillions-sized secondary market, offering a wide range of investment products. The exempt market, where I currently work, is different—its offerings are more niche, designed for high-net-worth investors to diversify risk.

But our products remain popular because they maintain low correlation with traditional bank wealth products. When massive market volatility or “Black Swan” events hit, MICs can help limit downside risk, making them a strong option for conservative investors.

My View on U.S. Equity Valuations

This week, I reviewed major U.S. companies’ valuations—PEG ratios, EV metrics, and more. Although giants like Apple, Nvidia, Google, and Meta are globally competitive, the valuations of the top three now show PEG ratios above 2, which generally suggests “overpriced.”

PEG compares valuation to earnings growth—the higher the PEG, the more expensive the stock.

Value investing requires buying strong, competitive companies at reasonable prices. Buying when valuations are high exposes investors to significant downside risks.

Morningstar’s data currently shows the overall U.S. market is highly valued.
This connects to several factors:

  • A strong USD
  • Positive U.S. macroeconomic data
  • Trump’s aggressive tariff policies
  • Global capital flowing toward U.S. high-yield assets

Hot money is pushing equity prices higher across liquid secondary markets.
Therefore, the risk level is elevated.

This is why I urge investors reading this to remain cautious with U.S. equities. Personally, U.S. stocks make up only 20% of my portfolio—I believe future volatility may be severe even if we can’t see it yet.

Many investors who have already made substantial gains are reallocating into undervalued, high-potential assets. They see the same thing: high U.S. valuations.

Lessons From Canada’s Housing Market

It’s similar to what happened in Canada’s residential real-estate market. When prices peaked in 2022, many agents encouraged buyers by saying, “Prices will keep rising!”

People unfamiliar with macroeconomics or the housing cycle rushed in… By 2025, their assets dropped more than 20% in value.

I’m one of the people who didn’t buy at the peak. I continued renting, and I still haven’t purchased a home today. I believe Canada’s housing market may continue to decline because of broader economic concerns.

For first-time buyers, this is painful—and even more so for property investors.
That’s why, I prefer loan-based fixed-income products:

  • They provide stable returns
  • They avoid asset-price depreciation risks

Crypto & Gold: My Short-Term Outlook

Crypto

After a sharp 30% correction, crypto is currently building a base. This sector remains a core part of future financial innovation, with strategic significance for many countries. With growing global participation and improved liquidity from exchanges like Binance, the long-term direction remains bullish.

Gold

Gold has inherent physical value and acts as a hard currency. Although it doesn’t generate recurring yield like an MIC does, its price is supported by global geopolitical instability and aggressive accumulation by nations—especially China, which is preparing for long-term strategic goals like resolving the Taiwan issue.

From late 2023 until now, gold has doubled, an unprecedented surge.
I suggest holding and observing.

Bitcoin? Buy dips and continue holding long-term.

MICs? I maintain my view: They remain a strong allocation choice for boosting overall return while diversifying risk.

Final Thoughts

2026 will be a year of both opportunity and uncertainty. Different asset classes will behave differently, and smart allocation—not speculation—will determine long-term success.

]]> Towards a democratization of art: the market in full mutation. https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/towards-a-democratization-of-art-the-market-in-full-mutation/ Sat, 23 Aug 2025 13:27:09 +0000 https://news.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=935149

The “Art Basel & UBS Art Market Report 2025” confirms a profound transformation of the global art market. While the total value of sales declined by 12% in 2024, transaction volume increased by 3%, reaching more than 40.5 million sales. This contrast illustrates a major shift: growth is now concentrated in the most accessible segments.

Key figures from the UBS / Art Basel 2025 report :

  • Major works (+10M $): -39% in volume, market share down from 23% to 18%.
  • Intermediate works (50K – 1M $): stable, but under buyer caution.
  • Affordable works (<$5K): +7% in value, +13% in volume.
  • New buyers: 44% of buyers were new in 2024, primarily young forty-somethings looking for small, accessible works, both in terms of price and comprehension. Pop art, which features icons, particularly appeals to this new generation of collectors.

Furthermore, 52% of acquisitions involved works by emerging or new artists, reinforcing the interest in accessibility and novelty (Artsy).

Main motivations:

  • 96.3% buy for personal pleasure.
  • 87% to support the talents they love.
  • Only 7% consider investment an important factor (MyArtBroker).

Closures of traditional art galleries mark the transition

The recent closure of iconic New York galleries, such as Kasmin Gallery (after 35 years of operation) and Blum Galleries, which closed in New York, Los Angeles, and Tokyo, as well as Clearing Gallery NY, shocked the art world. But these events, which also took place in major capitals across five continents, confirm that the traditional “old-fashioned” model must evolve to keep pace with the expectations of a new generation of collectors.

7Art Concept Store: anticipating change

“Art is what you can get away with.”

“Drawing inspiration from this famous quote, which was the guiding principle of Andy Warhol’s work, we have made it our philosophy.” It is in this spirit that 7Art, founded in 2006 by Audrey and François Trabelsi, has established itself as a visionary and pioneering player.

Already in 2008, during Art Basel Miami, Audrey and François produced the exhibition “In Fashion Photo” in a parking lot of more than 2,000 m2.

The main theme of this new kind of exhibition was the only retrospective dedicated to the career of supermodel Naomi Campbell, seen by the world’s greatest photographers. The event attracted more than 25,000 visitors in just 4 days. At that time, traditional galleries did not yet consider fashion photography as an art form… Galleries were then opened in Miami, New York, London and Paris…

INTERVIEW AUDREY TRABELSI – 7ART

Art after Covid-19: 7Art Concept Store, a new generation of galleries is born

 » The Covid-19 crisis marked a decisive turning point in the art world. For more than 18 months, our galleries in Paris (Hôtel Royal Monceau) and London (Four Seasons Ten Trinity) remained closed. This ordeal highlighted a profound change among collectors. We then understood that a new generation of buyers was emerging: younger, more curious, in search of works that resembled them and reflected their times. This generation no longer recognized itself in the rigid and intimidating codes of traditional galleries. It was at this moment that we made a visionary decision: to reinvent the art gallery model.

We designed a new, accessible and authentic offering, featuring works for less than $5,000, whereas our average was previously around $20,000. The immediate success of this approach confirmed our intuition: art had to leave its elitist temples and enter the daily lives of all those who love creation. Today, with 7ART Concept Store, we embody this breakthrough: a new generation of galleries that makes art closer, more understandable, more affordable, while remaining demanding and signed by emerging or established artists. The immediate success with new collectors confirmed our vision: the concept of 7Art Concept Store, where you can find accessible, unique or limited edition pieces, is a success, because nothing justified the exorbitant price of certain works offered by some of the traditional galleries. To date, 7Art cooperates with over a hundred artists and presents more than 1,500 works in a unique collection, also available on their new international website: www.7artusa.com.

7ART’s business model

Investing in the lobbies of large luxury hotels, on an average surface area of ​​25 m2 and, in less than 3 years, 7 openings in Dubai… Others are in progress for 2026.

  • W Hotel – The Palm
  • Jumeirah Zabeel Saray
  • Royal Atlantis The Palm
  • Marriott Resort – The Palm Dubai
  • Jumeirah Emirates Towers Hotel Dubai
  • Waldorf Astoria Palm Jumeirah
  • Grosvenor House West Marina Beach

International expansion

“After validating our model in Dubai, one of the most competitive markets for luxury and tourism, we are now ready to expand internationally, primarily in the USA as a second step.”

Our strategy is based on three main axes:

  • Hotel partnerships: continue to develop strategic partnerships with luxury hotel groups, based on the same model as the one tested in Dubai.
  • Flagships: opening directly owned stores in major cities to establish the brand’s reputation and prestige image.
  • Franchise: Offering franchise experiences with partners in major cities and tourist destinations where luxury and culture intersect. The development of our model is naturally replicable in other countries with strong market potential, with low risk and high potential returns for investors and partners.

“America’s Original Influencer” marketing campaign starring LL COOL J launches for the all-new 2026 Jeep® Cherokee

The all-new 2026 Jeep® Cherokee made a legendary reveal in New York yesterday, Aug. 21, as part of a take-over event in Brooklyn’s historic Domino Park. The live event, attended by Jeep owners and fans and streamed in New York Times Square, included a musical performance by LL COOL J, whose lyrics “Don’t Call it a Comeback” from his track “Mama Said Knock You Out” are featured in the brand’s new 60-second “America’s Original Influencer” campaign, now live on the Jeep brand’s social media channels.

The new “America’s Original Influencer” campaign, developed in partnership with Doner, highlights the Jeep Cherokee’s 50-plus-year legacy in the SUV segment, which is brought to life live this weekend, transforming Domino Square into an interactive playground of nostalgia, adventure and community. The larger-than-life Jeep 4×4 City Camp experience celebrates the return of the Jeep Cherokee, with interactive installations that capture the spirit of each era and the Jeep Cherokee models that define it.

Said LL COOL J, “I’ve been driving Jeep 4x4s for years – IYKYK. We go way back, so it’s an honor to be part of the iconic Jeep Cherokee’s return. Our bond is built on mutual respect: style, originality and always striving for the top. Not just for ourselves, but for everyone who chooses to ride with us on this journey.”

“New York, with all its grit and influence, made it the perfect place to launch the all-new 2026 Jeep Cherokee in front of so many Jeep fans and alongside the original influencer himself, LL COOL J,” said Bob Broderdorf, Jeep CEO. “Not only is the northeast a massive market for midsize SUVs, but more importantly it’s been the backdrop for so many Jeep Cherokee memories for families through the generations. We’re proud the all-new Jeep Cherokee hybrid, with its best-in-class capability, more cargo room and over 500 miles of adventure on a single tank, will continue driving that legacy forward for the next generation.” 

The vehicle reveal was live streamed in New York Times Square and broadcast on SiriusXM LL COOL J’s Rock the Bells Radio.

]]> FOSSIL AND 2025-2026 GLOBAL BRAND AMBASSADOR NICK JONAS RELEASE EXCLUSIVE “MACHINE LUXE” CAPSULE https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/fossil-and-2025-2026-global-brand-ambassador-nick-jonas-release-exclusive-machine-luxe-capsule/ Wed, 20 Aug 2025 10:40:42 +0000 https://amilcarmagazine.com/?p=935127 RICHARDSON, Texas, Aug. 20, 2025 – Global superstar, actor, and philanthropist Nick Jonas has teamed up with leading watch and accessories brand FOSSIL for a bold and nostalgic new collection, launching August 20, 2025. Each limited-edition timepiece blends Jonas’ passion for watch collecting, his distinct personal style and Fossil’s decades-long design heritage to deliver styles that are both timeless and distinctly modern—all while reinvigorating our customers’ love for and personal connection to the brand.

Nick Jonas x Fossil Campaign

“It’s the use of materials that give this collection a distinct personality. They’re exceptionally personal pieces that elevate any look,” says Nick Jonas. “I’m excited to share my love of watches and this collection with the world.”

A lifelong watch enthusiast whose first watch was a FOSSIL, Jonas has partnered with the brand to mark the full-circle moment with a global campaign, captured in Jonas’ native New Jersey. Shot by renowned creative director and photographer Anthony Mandler, and styled by celebrity image maker, Sydney Lopez, the campaign sees Jonas in iconic styles, participating in activities that marked his childhood like visiting local diners and going to the bowling alley. This nod to Jonas’ childhood era will reignite the same nostalgic memories in customers and brand fans, reminding them of small and monumental moments alike throughout their lives.

Fossil Logo

“Collaborating with the FOSSIL design team has been a dream come true. They were receptive and open to my ideas throughout the entire process,” said Nick Jonas. “I still remember the excitement and pure joy I felt when I purchased my first FOSSIL watch shortly after one of my early performances. I wanted to capture that feeling for today’s customers and give them styles that feel elevated and luxurious, but still embody the nostalgia synonymous with FOSSIL.”

The “Machine Luxe” collection is a reimagined take on our bold and bestselling Machine platform, consisting of seven new watches and two new watch rings. Each style features a statement shaped case and signature knurling, characteristic of the Machine series at large.

The Machine Luxe Sunray Dial watches are available in Blue Vignette and Gold-Toned, featuring finely etched lines that fan out from the center of the dial to create a radiant sunray texture. The Blue Vignette paired with a brown croc-embossed leather strap was a personal request by Jonas, echoing a treasured piece from his own collection.

The Machine Luxe Automatic models elevate the offering with a skeletonized dial that reveals a premium Japanese automatic movement and hand-assembled parts. Available in Gunmetal and Gold-Toned.

Showcasing rich natural materials, the Machine Luxe Stone Dial watches arrive in genuine Malachite, Aventurine, and Marble. The signature knurling extends onto the bracelet, adding a bold twist to the classic dress watch silhouette.

Completing the capsule are the Machine Luxe Watch Rings in Gunmetal and Green Vignette. The rings mirror the timepieces’ aesthetic, bringing signature FOSSIL design details into the brand’s distinct, best-selling watch ring.

“Nick Jonas has a genuine love for watches and an authentic connection with FOSSIL brand, it having been his first watch,” said Melissa Lowenkron, Chief Brand Officer of Fossil. “There’s a sense of nostalgia and personal style he brings to the design—rooted in his own journey—that we know will resonate with fans and collectors alike.”

The Nick Jonas x FOSSIL Collection will be available at FOSSIL.com, all FOSSIL stores beginning August 20, 2025, and premium global retailers beginning September 2025.

FOSSIL

Since 1984, Fossil has been rooted in bold design and quality craftsmanship of watches. Over the past 40 years, the brand has grown into a multi-category lifestyle brand inclusive of leather goods and jewelry that blend vintage inspiration with modern innovation by creating pieces that spark curiosity, connection, and lasting memories. Fossil creates keepsakes that honor the past, celebrate the present, and look ahead to the future.

NICK JONAS

After electrifying music from multiple angles, appearing in blockbuster films, and launching successful business ventures, Nick Jonas still challenges himself and popular culture. Of course, his story as one-third of Jonas Brothers remains well-documented—especially given the band’s chart-dominating 2019 comeback Happiness Begins, sold out tours, and subsequent GRAMMY® Award nomination. At the same time, he established himself as a dynamic solo artist with a penchant for breaking boundaries. 2014’s self-titled Nick Jonas yielded the triple-platinum “Jealous,” double-platinum “Chains,” and gold-certified “Levels.” Its 2016 follow-up Last Year Was Complicated spawned the anthem “Close” [feat. Tove Lo] and brought his streams into the billions. In 2017, he contributed the Golden Globe® Award-nominated “Home” to the Ferdinand soundtrack. Meanwhile, his songwriting would be recognized with the prestigious Hal David Starlight Award from the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2016, and in 2021, he released his solo studio album Spaceman via Island Records.  Along the way, he also captivated audiences as a recurring judge on NBC’s “The Voice” in big screen favorites such as Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, Ugly Dolls, Midway, Jumanji: The Next Level, Chaos Walking and more. In 2023, he starred in Robert Schwartzman’s The Good Half and is now set to return to the silver screen alongside Paul Rudd in the upcoming musical comedy Power Ballad.  In 2023, Nick and Jonas Brothers once again proved they are a constant force, embarking on a new era with the release of The Album, via Republic Records. The Album was produced by Jon Bellion and features hit singles “Waffle House” and “Wings.” In support of the new album and this new era for Jonas Brothers, they kicked off “The Tour” kicking off with two sold-out shows at New York’s iconic Yankee Stadium. “The Tour” included stadium and arena dates around the globe through 2024, resulting in the band’s biggest and most extensive tour to date. 2025 marks 20 years of Jonas Brothers, with their upcoming studio album Greetings From Your Hometown set for release via Republic Records on August 8, followed by a celebratory tour kicking off in their home state of New Jersey at MetLife Stadium on August 10.

Editor’s Favorite: Dentakay

About: Rachel Joulia-Helou, Editor-in-Chief AMILCAR MAGAZINE GROUP  (30 magazines) &  THE RIGHT NUMBER MAGAZINE.

We discovered Dentakay and spoke with the founders about their visions and expertise. The Dentakay group is expanding internationally with an international clientele and practices and offices in several countries. I invite you to discover our experience, with the Dentakay team , detailed by Alexandre Joulia. Given the plurality of Dentakay expertise and the unforgettable experience with the team, I will be pleased to share with you again my approach and my discussions with the different departments. The strength of Dentakay lies in the fact that it is more than a dental practice.

I was able to discover the experts, the dental surgeons, the artists who design and create custom teeth, the on-site laboratories, the best materials and equipment grouped together, thus creating total independence and a tailor-made service: Dental excellence signed Dentakay . Not to mention that patients are pampered during their stays, with time for rest and visits to have another vision of medical tourism. When excellence meets well-being. It changes the lives of patients…

For me, aesthetics are not a necessity. I operate on the simple principle that “LESS IS MORE.” In a world of perfection, I seek simplicity and elegance in everything I create and in all my choices. 

If I think about the meeting with the Dentakay teams , I would rather speak of humanity, of a discovery of a culture, of an innate vision, of a positivism which reminds me of my own, of a necessary confidence and of course of a tailor-made diagnosis. 

When we talk about teeth, I mainly think about the impact on one’s health and well-being as well as one’s confidence, and I come back to the notion of aesthetics. You might think that this notion is certainly important to me. However, the way others look at you no longer matters to me. On the other hand, well-being is important because it affects how you feel good about yourself and in shape every day to carry out important actions and have a sincere smile. Those who have encountered health problems will understand me because the most important thing in life is health. 

Photos: © Alexandre JOULIA, Deputy Editor-in-Chief AMILCAR MAGAZINE GROUP 

This is Dentakay ‘s strength : understanding and making others understand, without ever forcing, while adapting to each person. 

Why are you talking about this? Simply because I spoke with the team, I didn’t do much but I had a sincere and realistic diagnosis to have good health for 10 to 20 years. I have fairly healthy teeth but sometimes irregularity can cause certain problems in the long term. Whether I accept it or not, it’s a fact. It’s up to me to decide if I want to resolve it.  The opinion I share today is only on the diagnosis and small treatments ( scaling, polishing teeth, care on a tooth ) but Dentakay is for me excellence in dental care and well beyond.

Hence this notion of aesthetics that returns, not to please or please oneself, but for homogeneity and especially long-term stability. So, this aesthetics becomes useful and at that moment I accept it. Do you know that irregular teeth have consequences: muscular tension, tension in the jaw and neck, migraines … and can facilitate the appearance of cavities. This simple observation must be taken into consideration.

Certainly, I don’t have any major problems. However, it helps to understand some problems that can become more important in the long run . I have understood the need to take care of oneself. Sometimes, we are constantly running and we forget ourselves.

As a model for years, I was always linked to this notion of aesthetics but I knew how to impose a certain detachment and work with people who had this vision. 

Today, I seek to value above all expertise, well-being, innovation … And, Dentakay has a perfect mastery in the dental field, with an innovative vision of medical tourism. Dentakay has received several awards. Dr. Gülay Akay is a cosmetic dentist and founder of Dentakay. The journey of Mr. and Mrs. AKAY ( Onur AKAY and Dr. Gülay AKAY ) is impressive because they have a unique vision and they put it at the service of their patients. 

Onur and Gülay Akay  – © Dentakay

Now, I think my point will take on its full meaning because it is not about relaying information without understanding and feeling it. This is why you will understand that Dentakay really changes people’s lives by taking care of them sincerely and with real expertise at an affordable price! I have met patients proud to take photos to show the result, people with a joy of living while they were in pain. This is why I am also proud to share my opinion and I will tell you about it again after testing and completing the experience. Let’s not forget that the most important thing will always be health.

This is how I can now share with you the opinion of Alexandre JOULIA, deputy editor-in-chief, who details this expertise well. It is the best cosmetic dentistry clinic in Turkey and far beyond.

]]> Tiffany Haddish to Host the 29th Annual FGI Rising Star Awards https://canada.amilcarmagazine.com/tiffany-haddish-to-host-the-29th-annual-fgi-rising-star-awards/ Tue, 18 Mar 2025 14:42:47 +0000 https://usa.amilcarmagazine.com/?p=932301

Fashion Group International (FGI) will host the 29th annual FGI Rising Star Awards ceremony on April 16, 2025, in New York City, from 11 am to 2 pm (location to be announced).

Emmy, Grammy, and NAACP Image award winning actress, performer, producer, and New York Times bestselling author Tiffany Haddish (Girls Trip, The Last Black Unicorn), will host the venerable fashion non-profit organization’s red-carpet awards ceremony – joined by presenters Fern Mallis, Gary Wassner, Ken Downing, Reem Acra, Jonathan Cohen, and more to be announced. The event convenes leading designers, executives, and tastemakers, and presenters to recognize emerging talent in fashion, beauty, and related sectors – along with distinguished leaders like Robert Chavez, former Executive Chairman Hermès Americas (Retired), recipient of this year’s Lifetime Achievement Award.

“The Rising Star Awards and program serve as a premier platform for celebrating the next generation of industry leaders,” said Alyce Panico, Chairperson of FGI Board of Directors and CEO of Luxe Collective Group. “I am incredibly proud of this initiative in championing mentorship and leadership in a year where these values are more vital than ever. FGI remains at the forefront of supporting emerging talent and empowering them to shape the future of our industry.”

“Each year, as we review the applications, we remain inspired by the energy and creativity of these founders, designers, and emerging brands,” says Maryanne Grisz, President & CEO of Fashion Group International. “They are the future of fashion – and it is our honor to recognize their work and support their vision as these nominees and honorees step into the spotlight and the next chapter of their careers at the FGI Rising Star Awards.”

The FGI Rising Star Awards is one of FGI’s signature fundraising events. The event’s visibility and impact reflect the global fashion organization’s commitment to nurture and support fashion professionals at every stage of their careers with vital resources, educational opportunities, and a global forum for connection. Applications opened in September of 2024 to eligible businesses in operation for two to six years. Finalists and honorees are ultimately selected by FGI member vote and juried panel.

Historically, the FGI Rising Star Awards have served as a career incubator for some of the fashion world’s most revered brands and designers, including Tory Burch, Jason Wu, Brandon Maxwell, Joseph Altuzarra, Phillip Lim, Kerby Jean-Raymond, Thom Brown, Monica Rich Kosann, Dee Ocleppo Hilfiger, Brett Heyman, Warby Parker, Cornelia Guest; Dylan Lauren of Dylan’s Candy Bar; Jennifer Fleiss and Jennifer Hyman of Rent The Runway, and Rachel Shechtman of Story.

Returning sponsor Macy’s, in its second-year partnership with FGI, will again sponsor the Future Fashion Award in Fashion Merchandising, recognizing an outstanding student in fashion merchandising enrolled in one of six partner collegiate programs. On behalf of returning sponsor Hilldun Corporation, Gary Wassner will present the Hilldun Business Innovation Award to Carly Bigi, Founder of Laws of Motion.

FGI will fete awards finalists at an annual, invitation-only pre-event. This year, for the first time, the awards pre-event will take the form of an informal fireside chat: a new format proposed by FGI Board Chairperson Alyce Panico. Ms. Panico was appointed to the role in January of 2025, succeeding 6-year former Board Chairperson and current FGI Board member and advisor James D’Adamo. 

Prior to her appointment, Ms. Panico served on the FGI Board of Directors for five years in addition to co-chairing the 2024 FGI Night of Stars gala. The fireside chat aligns with FGI’s strategic direction for 2025 and Panico’s expressed goals to continue fostering opportunities for connection and to further develop the organization’s impactful programming.

This year’s pre-party event will be hosted by APL and APL Managing Partner NJ Falk, at the luxury performance athletic and lifestyle footwear flagship store in New York City’s SoHo district. During the event, FGI Chairperson Alyce Panico will moderate a fireside chat with NJ Falk, Robert Chavez, Gary Wassner, and other special guests who, together, will discuss the topic of mentorship and paying it forward in the fashion industry.
