The postal strike must still be having an affect, as for some strange reason my invite to the 2009 British Fashion Awards, sponsored by Swarovkski, never turned up!!  : )

I had to settle for reading various panicked tweets from fashionistas and editors discussing their outfits and hairdo’s for the evening events…..

So here are the results for everyone who wasn’t lucky enough to attend the star studded event…

The young Christopher Bailey had a stellar night picking up gongs for best Designer Brand with Burberry as well as the ultimate accolade of BFC designer of the year.

The undisputed star of The September Issue, Stylist, make up artists, photographer, art director and producer Grace Coddington scooped the Isabella Blow Award for Fashion Creater.

Model of the year went to the impossible pouty young Georgia Jagger.

Holly Futton was bowled over winning the Emerging Talent for Accessories, with Accessory Designer Award going to Kate Hillier, and the Emerging Talent for Ready to Wear going to innovative and directional designer Peter Pilotto. 

Kim Jones of Dunhill was awarded Menswear Designer whose bespoke tailoring has been particularly influential at moving forward mens fashion in 2009. 

The diminutive Scot Christopher Kane was rightfully applauded for his collection which has helped see his star shine brighter here and all around the world this year. 

Of course no fashion event would be complete without a sighting or mention of Kate Moss, who was given the London 25 award, which aims to highlight a person that embodies the spirit of London and is an international ambassador for London as a leading creative fashion capital.

I was thrilled to see the flamboyant genius John Galliano rewarded with the BFC Outstanding Achievement in Fashion Design, his impact on the fashion world and style in general in undeniable- a true legend in his lifetime!!

Most post-event gossip has been regarding Kate’s apparent friendship with Ms Beckham, who happily posed together in front of the camera flash bulbs. Perhaps both are just incredibly media savvy ??
