Here Are The Nominees For The 2016 Fashion Awards
There’s set to be a sister-off between Gigi and Bella
The full list of nominees for the 2016 Fashion Awards (which were previously known as the British Fashion Awards) has been revealed.
With the name change, the Awards have set out to be more inclusive of international talent this year, though it is still predominantly British-focused, with awards like British Designer of the Year, British Brand and British Emerging Talent all still present. However, a new award has been introduced – International Urban Luxury Brand – which sees the likes of Vetements, Placa Skateboards and Off-White up for the title.
Unsurprisingly, Alessandro Michele is up for International Ready-To-Wear Designer, and is up against Balenciaga’s Demna Gvasalia, Donatalla Versace, Loewe’s Jonathan Anderson and Riccardo Tischi from Givenchy.
Perhaps most interestingly, Gigi and Bella Hadid will go head-to-head in the International Model category against each other, as well as best friend Kendall Jenner.
The ceremony is set to take place on December 5 at Royal Albert Hall, and Natalie Massenet, the British Fashion Council chairman, told Business of Fashion that the event will be “the most sweeping, beautiful, magical, sparkly, twinkly, elegant red carpet you’ve ever seen.”
