It might be December, but the year's not over yet — at least not where the fashion world is concerned. The Fashion Awards (or the British Fashion Awards, as they're known in full) are officially here, with Britain's fashionable elite pouring into London's Royal Albert Hall for the occasion.
The annual evening is hosted by the British Fashion Council, and commemorates the biggest achievements in the industry from that year. Among those vying for recognition in various categories in 2024 are names like Miuccia Prada, Jonathan Anderson, Kim Jones, and John Galliano.
There are plenty of big-ticket categories to be unveiled on the night. Among them, Alex Consani has officially made history as the first transgender woman to take home the coveted Model of the Year category. In her acceptance speech, Consani acknowledged the monumental moment, saying, "I can't accept this award without thanking those who came before me, specifically the Black trans women who really fought for the space I'm in today – Dominique Jackson, Connie Fleming, Aaron Rose Phillips and countless more who fought for the space that allowed me to flourish today." She signed off by saying, “Change is more than possible; it's needed."
So while we wait for winners in other notable categories like Designer of the Year to be revealed, we're looking to the red carpet where, as always, attendees have shown up in their sartorial best. See all our favourite looks from the night, below.
