“COTTWEILER以原创方式全新演绎美丽诺羊毛，融合运动休闲、高端定制、街头潮流等多种风格，开创了男装新趋势和新领域。”DAZED传媒首席执行官兼联合创始人Jefferson Hack在大奖公布后表示。
Representing the British Isles, COTTWEILER’s winning International Woolmark Prize collection comprises sheer Merino wool base-layers, windproof mid-layers and quilted waterproof outerwear, with wool-blend fabrics ranging from 18.5 microns through to 19.5 microns, and recycled wool scraps used for insulation. The resultant collection brings COTTWEILER’s brand of fetish-infused cult and tribe codes into the world of wool, with utilitarian detailing – padded hoods, detachable cargo pockets, running caps, and elasticised hems and cuffs, for example – at its core.
COTTWEILER来自不列颠群岛赛区，其获奖系列作品面料甄选美丽诺羊毛面料来制作内里、防风中层和防水外层，羊毛混纺面料选用直径在18.5微米至19.5微米的羊毛纤维、并将废弃的羊毛材料制成隔热层。COTTWEILER的该系列不但为羊毛时装注入了部落元素和狂热色彩，并拥有丰富实用的细节设计：棉帽衫、可拆卸口袋、跑步帽、弹性衣边和袖口等等。
“Winning the International Woolmark Prize gives us the opportunity to share what we do with a much bigger, global audience,” said COTTWEILER after the win. “But for us, the great part of this was the opportunity to work with a different material - Merino wool - because we’re always interested in experimenting with technology and development.”
“赢得国际羊毛标志大奖使我们有机会与全球观众分享我们的作品。”COTTWEILER获奖后表示，“但最让我们兴奋的还是可以使用美丽诺羊毛这种与众不同的面料来进行创作，我们始终热衷于技术创新和不断突破。”
“COTTWEILER doesn’t want to show off and are very relaxed and confident in themselves and what they show,” said Hood by Air Creative Director Shayne Oliver.” They know where to go with this funding and it will give them the push to get to the level they deserve to be at.”
“COTTWEILER 对于自己的作品非常自信但不自负。”Hood By Air创意总监Shayne Oliver说，“他们明白该如何利用这笔奖金进一步提升品牌地位，这份荣誉是他们应得的。”
Representing the USA, Gabriela Hearst was praised for her technical innovation and quality craftsmanship.

"The International Woolmark Prize gives a huge opportunity to young designers globally," explains Victoria Beckham. "It shows how much you can do with wool as a designer.
“国际羊毛标志大奖赋予全球各地的新锐设计师前所未有的机遇。”Victoria Beckham表示，“它为设计师提供了尽情演绎羊毛的绝佳舞台。”
"I was very much in support of Gabriela. For me, she is the worthy winner. I love what she does and she's clearly very talented. I like her eye, she has great product and she's a strong woman. I have a huge amount of respect for her. I'm proud and honoured to get involved in this and help make this possible for her."
“我一直非常喜爱Gabriela。我认为她获得奖项当之无愧。她非常有才华，作品也非常精彩。我喜欢她的眼睛、她的作品以及她坚强的个性。我非常尊重她，也非常荣幸能够参与大奖的评定，为她投上自己的一票。”
British Fashion Council Chair Dame Natalie Massenet DBE echoes this sentiment, saying: “We picked Gabriela because we thought she struck a chord on every level: a passion for wool, its history, and the varied uses of wool,” said “I learned a lot hearing her talking about the processes and the fact wool doesn’t wrinkle. She did a very good job of showing high-low, from evening gowns through to trench coats and pant suits and we feel that she will have an enormous future and will be great spokesperson for wool.”
英国时装协会（British Fashion Council）主席Dame Natalie Massenet DBE也同意Victoria Beckham的观点：“我们选择Gabriela满足了所有的条件：热爱羊毛、并用多样的方式使用羊毛。”她表示，“我从她的经历和羊毛的垂坠性中获益匪浅。从晚礼服到风衣和长裤西服，她完美地展现了各个场合的时装。我们看到了她未来的无限潜力，并相信她将是羊毛最佳的代言人。”
Born in Uruguay, the New York-based designer grew up on a sheep farm and believes in the traditional values of quality. Hearst’s winning International Woolmark Prize collection presents sleek silhouettes with updates on trench coats, pleats and an evening dress teamed with the more utilitarian baseball jacket with adjoining scarf, one-piece long johns, reversible puffer vest and cycling trousers. Using ultrafine 14.5 micron Merino wool for luxurious knitwear, though to 21.5 micron wool to create a wool-velvet fabrication, Hearst’s clean cuts and precision offers a collection set to stand the test of time.
这位纽约设计师在乌拉圭的绵羊牧场长大，坚持选择具备卓越品质的面料。其获奖系列包含新颖的茧型大衣、打褶服、晚礼服，搭配实用的棒球服和围巾，连体裤，内外两穿式背心和紧身运动裤，时尚大气。奢华针织品甄选超细的14.5微米美丽诺羊毛，21.5微米美丽诺羊毛则使羊毛呈献羽绒般的轻盈质感，利落精确的裁剪打造了永不过时的时尚经典。
“From a personal perspective I wish my grandfather and father were here,” said Gabriela Hearst after the win. “As a designer it’s a huge honour to be recognised and I cannot wait to promote more Merino wool in the world as I believe it is the yarn of future.”
“我非常希望我的祖父和父亲能够在现场目睹这一切。”Gabriela Hearst在获奖后表示：“国际羊毛标志大奖对于设计师而言是至高无上的殊荣。我已经迫不及待继续推崇美丽诺羊毛，我相信这是属于未来的纱线。”

"It is not only home to some of the world's most iconic luxury fashion houses, but also to some of the world most fashion-forward, savvy consumers.
