The event formerly known as British Fashion Awards, gathers up designers, models, actresses, innovators and worldwide personalities to award the individuals that made outstanding contributions to the Fashion Industry in the current year. In order to appeal at an international level, the show changed its name in 2016 to the Fashion Awards and introduced new award categories: Urban Luxury, Creative Influencer, Business Leader, Ready-to-Wear Designer of the Year, and the Swarovski Award for Positive Change. This year’s event features 12 categories, three of which will be announced beforehand but presented on the night with the other prizes.
Ahead of the event, Stella McCartney has been announced as the winner of the Special Recognition Award For Innovation, Maria Grazia Chiuri is set to win the Swarovski Award for Positive Change and Donatella Versace will be crowned the industry’s Fashion Icon.
