Talent deserves
to be seen.

Sobeidy Vidal founded Latin Fashion Awards™ as part of her work building platforms for Latin fashion. Born in the Dominican Republic and based in the Washington, D.C. region, she brings a personal commitment to connecting creative talent with recognition and opportunity.

That purpose begins with people: the designer developing a point of view, the creative professional building a career, and the next generation looking for a place in the industry.
