Forbes revealed its 30 Under 30 List, featuring Simone Rocha and Phoebe English in the Art and Style category.
Misha Nonoo, a CFDA Fashion Fund finalist and Fashion Scout's One To Watch winner, and Christian Siriano, a New York-based designer and former "Project Runway" winner, were also named on the list.
Michael Solomon, editor of ForbesLife; Jeffrey Deitch, former director of the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art; fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi and home designer Jonathan Adler chose the Art and Style list recipients.
This is Forbes' fourth annual list of young industry professionals, which charts names across 20 fields.
Rocha recently designed a 14-piece collaborative collection with J Brand.
"I'd never worked with denim before. It was a bit tricky, but interesting to see how it could be manipulated," the 28-year-old told Elle back in October.
"I really wanted to introduce volume into the skirts, dresses, and jackets. I felt that was the best new way of working with the existing silhouettes," Rocha added.
The British designer gained the L.A.-based denim company's attention following her admired fall 2013 collection, which was inspired by Elizabethan era attire and featured many pearls.
J Brand has previously collaborated with Proenza Schouler, Hussein Chalaya and Christopher Kane.
Rocha was also awarded the 2013 Emerging Menswear Designer prize at the British Fashion Awards. She made her London Fashion Week debut in spring 2011 and has dressed Alexa Chung, Laura Bailey and Chloe Moretz for the red carpet.
