STYLE STANDOUTS: UNFORGETTABLE NAMES THAT LIT UP THE 2023 FASHION AWARDS.

The verdict is OUT.
The glitzy affair known as the Fashion Awards, organized annually by the British Fashion Council, made a dazzling comeback this Monday night at the iconic Royal Albert Hall. Anticipate a star-studded event featuring a line-up of prominent celebrities and top-notch designers.

Earlier in the year, the British Fashion Council unveiled the nominees for the upcoming Fashion Awards, and now the highly anticipated moment for the grand award ceremony has arrived. These awards, a celebration of the dynamic interplay between fashion and culture, shine a spotlight on the imaginative talents shaping this vibrant landscape. The Fashion Awards are ingeniously categorized into six sections: British Menswear Designer, British Womenswear Designer, New Establishment Menswear, New Establishment Womenswear, Model of the Year, and the much-coveted Designer of the Year.

Traditionally, the laureates are handpicked by a distinguished panel of over a thousand industry experts. The judging lineup includes luminaries such as Caroline Issa, BFC On-Exec Board Member and Chief Executive at Tank Magazine, Charlie Porter, a noted Fashion Writer, Ida Petersson, Buying Director at Browns, Stavros Karelis, the founder of MACHINE-A, and Sarah Mower, BFC Ambassador for Emerging Talent. Notably, this year marks a groundbreaking shift, allowing the public to actively participate in voting for Model of the Year, alongside a diverse array of judges.
