NEW YORK—Positive Luxury, sustainability experts for the global luxury industry, are once again holding their Positive Luxury Awards this year and the application deadline is still open for fashion accessories companies and retailers. The group noted, "The world’s biggest issues—from climate to inequality—intensify and change every year. More than ever, we need huge ambition and inspirational action to tackle these most pressing challenges. Positive Luxury believes luxury should lead the way. Always setting new standards and creating new norms—luxury can drive real change for people and nature.

“The Positive Luxury Awards celebrate innovation, real change and higher standards across the supply chain—the brands, retailers or suppliers at the forefront of innovation taking serious, positive action."
 
Judged by an independent panel that represents a cross-section of experts including academics, thought leaders and industry executives, the awards are an opportunity for organizations to be celebrated for showing what is possible, recognized for their innovation and rewarded for sustainability leadership in the luxury industry.
