Kirstin Deutelmoser receives Fashion Fuchs2009

Published: 14 January, 2010

Kirstin Deutelmoser (pictured), director of GDS – International Event for Shoes & Accessories, as well as GLOBAL SHOES – leading trade show for sourcing, at Messe Düsseldorf, was honoured last month with the Fashion Fuchs 2009 from Hermann Fuchslocher Business Consultancy. With the award, the jury around Dr. Rolf Klinke again honours an “exemplary personalised fashion achievement”.

The laudatory speech went on to state that, “Like no other, Ms. Deutelmoser was and is committed to bring the increasingly diffused trade fair landscape together in Düsseldorf under the aspect of a true industry meeting for shoes. In Leipzig and in Düsseldorf, she managed in an exemplary manner to set an important personal note for the fashion and most notably the shoe industry through her exceptional efforts.”

This puts Kirstin Deutelmoser in a class with such personalities as Dr. Karl-Wilhelm Vordemfelde, managing director of Wilvorst Herrenmoden GmbH; Achim Gabor, chairman of the board at Gabor Shoes AG; and Wolfgang Jassner, managing director of bruno banani Underwear GmbH.
