british fashion awards

The British Fashion Awards took place in Savoy in London last night and from the pictures and tweets I’ve seen and read today it looked like a glamorous and pleasant event for all that attended.

Victoria Beckham won Designer Brand of the Year. Personally, I didn’t think that would happen when up against Burberry, Tom Ford and the amazing Stella McCartney but she did it and it seemed that she (like me) didn’t expect it either when she accepted her award with a bucket of tears. Looks like she is a force to be reckoned with and has definitely shaken off that ‘WAG’ tag.


She looked perfect in all black.



The award for Designer of the Year went to Sarah Burton, the creative director at House of McQueen. Of course we all knew that would happen; especially after being the genius of a mind behind Kate Middleton’s wedding dress earlier on this year. When accepting her award off Samantha Cameron she told the audience that “this feels like the icing on the cake on a really amazing year”. 


Here are some of my favourite designs by Sarah...




The wonderful Alexa Chung was crowned Style Icon of the Year. Again, I’m sure you all saw that coming right? After all Chung is constantly on Best Dress lists! It really is no surprise she won it for a second year running. Constantly wearing the best labels and being somewhat of a ‘muse’ for designers I’m really happy she won again! It has been her year especially with the new line for A/W Madewell.

MADE UP Mary Katrantzou won Emerging Talent of the Year. If having a runway made solely of tulips doesn’t win you that I don’t know what will! So excited for her collection with Topshop next year.
