British Fashion Awards 2021, all the celeb looks

Every day a fashion addicted in Great Britain wakes up and knows that there is nothing more important on their agenda than the British Fashion Awards. Every day for more than a year he has been waiting for the 2021 event, given that, due to Covid, in 2020 the award ceremony was staged only in digital form, losing, of course, in glamor. What we breathed loud and clear, however, on the red carpet set up on the evening of November 29 at the Royal Albert Hall, trodden by hundreds of celebs, designers, pop stars gathered in the name of fashion and to confer honors to the greatest creatives and innovative talents in the sector, from the UK and the whole world.

And it was clear from the exact second where the first participant stepped on red carpet that this glorious moment caused a strong emotion in everyone. Not only for the impressive event but also because the memory of the great Virgil Abloh, who died at the age of 41 just 24 hours earlier, is inevitable in everyone. To him, who changed the rules-à-porter forever, brilliant founder of Off-White and creative director of Louis Vuitton menswear, the homage sincere and dutiful during the award ceremony that was rightly dedicated to him.

Presenting the Oscars of British fashion, the style icon and absolute reference point of genderless couture, Billy Porter in a houndstooth dress with straps Va Va Voom by Richard Quinn, whose creations have been spotted on countless stars, from Pryanka Chopra ad Addison Rae passing through Ella Balinska, Elsa Hosk and many others.

In addition, this year’s event was presented in partnership with TiKTok to raise money for the BFC Foundation which supports the growth of the British fashion industry. The goal of joining the young social network was of course to give new polish and reach a new audience.

To the British designer Kim Jones, creative director of Dior Men and Fendi, went to the most coveted award, that is Designer of the Year, delivered to him by his muse Demi Moore, amazing and hyper bling bling in a Fendi dress, of course. Once again, at 59, the actress proved that style has no age.

Ad Alessandro Michele, for his work at the helm of Gucci went the Trailblazer Awards as the most visionary creative, while theOutstanding achievement award, the Lifetime Achievement Award, was awarded to Tommy Hilfiger. Among the 15 awarded for bringing positive change to the fashion industry in three categories, environment, people and creativity, both emerging and big as Stella McCartney (find the list of all the winners at the bottom of the article).

On the look of the stars, it is clear that “no holds barred” has been the mantra of clothing for most of them as the super celebs have presented some of the best outfits spotted in a couple of years now. From Gabrielle Union in Valentino Couture from vibes blinding neon up to british girl for excellence Alexa Chung in a bon ton canary yellow dress by Caroline Hu, with a quilted coordinator by Winnie Harlow branded Moncler in total black by Dua Lipa, beautiful in Maximilian.
