British Fashion Awards 2010

SO last night was the British Fashion Awards, they were held at the Savoy (and man oh man I wish I was on that guest list)

'British designers and creatives are renowned for their ability to set the global fashion agenda.  Each year the British Fashion Awards celebrates their creativity and success.

Established in 1989, the British Fashion Awards was born from the British Fashion Council’s then five-year-old Designer of the Year Award. For more than 20 years, the British Fashion Awards has been celebrating the contributions of British designers, creatives and models to the international fashion scene.' BFA

BFC Outstanding Achievement in Fashion; went to Alexandar McQueen, making it the fourth time he has won this award.

 McQueen will be remembered as the most innovative and influential fashion designer of his generation.

To commemorate Lee’s life and celebrate this award the ceremony will open with a film featuring Lee’s most iconic pieces directed by Nick Knight, styled by Edward Enninful and soundtrack by Bjork. The film will feature iconic pieces from Lee's career from the Alexander McQueen archive.
