BFA Awards: Stella McCartney Leads Fash Pack



























It's one of the most prestigious nights in fashion, and it's been another great one for our fash pack yet again with Stella McCartney alone scooping awards for both best designer brand and designer of the year.

Alexa Chung came away for the third year running with the award for best British Style, the only award voted for by the public, beating the likes of VB and Kate Moss.

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a major Chung fan, yet even I can appreciate the contribution she's made to our fashion, 5 years ago no one in the industry would be seen out without those killer heels, yet nowadays, even queen of heels Victoria Beckham has been seen out in 'monk shoes'.

The award for best model unsurprisingly went to 'her of amazing eyebrows' - Cara Delevingne (so amazing in fact that they now have their own Twitter page @caras_brows )whilst my personal favourite designer, Erdem won the New Establishment award.

Despite the flop that was his Topshop collaboration, JW Anderson still managed to scoop the RTW Emerging Talent award where as Sophie Hulme and Jonathan Saunders won the ET awards for Accessories and Menswear respectively.

Jonathan Saunders Wins The BFC/Vogue Fashion Fund

Scottish designer Jonathan Saunders has today been revealed as the winner of the 2012 BFC/Vogue Fashion Fund, beating off stiff competition from competitors such as Meadham Kirchhoff, Peter Pilotto and Richard Nicoll to name a few.

The designer will receive a cash prize of £200,000 as well as becoming part of a exclusive mentoring programme which will help him achieve his business goals over the following twelve months.

He told Vogue 'I am so happy about winning the fund, the last 12 months have been an exciting time for me and my team and I'm very proud of all their hard work. We have many plans for the near future and this along with the support network provided by the BFC will enable us to achieve our goals'.

Saunders has also won Scottish Designer of the Year award for the past two years and after beating industry favourite Mary Katrantzou to the prize can only be a good thing.

Advent Calender Wishlist: Day Twenty Two


I'm not usually one for bright colours, but this Romilly dress from Jonathan Saunders is just so stunning I cant help but find myself lusting after it.  It's bright colour are reminiscent of more than one designer from the SS 2012 shows (Jason Wu, Sophie Thealett) and its print is so girly and playful that I cant imagine any female not liking it! The best bit?  There's also a matching cardigan, or is that too Stepford Wives? Get it now from Matches.
