Red Carpet Report • 2011 British Fashion Awards

On Monday, the 2011 British Fashion Awards were held at the Savoy Hotel and Theatre in London. At the British Fashion Awards, British designers are celebrated for their creativity and success. The British Fashion Awards were established in 1989. Some winners: Sarah Burton (Designer of the Year), Christopher Kane (New Establishment Award), Stella McCartney (Red Carpet Award) and Victoria Beckham (Designer Brand Award) This year the Awards took place on the 28th, so lets check out the fashion!

One of my favourite fashionista's, Olivia Palermo looked beautiful on the red carpet. She donned a beaded, sequined and feathered wool-crepe Matthew Williamson Fall 2011 dress, which I loved! Olivia styled her ensemble with her favourite Topshop flame ankle boots and a clutch by Charlotte Olympia. Olivia wore her hair in a low bun and she topped off her look with bling bling earrings and a matching ring.

Victoria Beckham was a winner in her own brand, in a black halter dress with a pleated skirt and open back from the Fall 2011 collection. Victoria paired her dress with black Louboutin Daffodil pumps. Her hair was in a low bun. She added a pop of colour with burgundy nails.


Alexa Chung was the winner of the British Style Award. She took her award home in a Christopher Kane Spring 2012 dress. The silk dress featured an embellished overlay and was teamed with a matching clutch, also by Christopher Kane. Alexa wore cute velvet kitty flats by Charlotte Olympia. Her hair was down and she wore (almost) no make-up. Such a cute look!

Stella McCartney also was a winner. The designer (obviously) opted for a printed baggy jumpsuit with a deep V-neck from her Spring 2012 collection. She paired her jumpsuit with black sandals, which were a bit to heavy for the look. Stella wore her hair in a sleek style.

Actress Kate Hudson wore a custom Stella McCartney gown while handing Stella McCartney her award. Her embroidered black one-shoulder gown featured a mesh panel. Kate wore her blonde hair in a top knot. Isn't she in a perfect shape, only five months after giving birth to her son?!

Daughter of Yasmin le Bon, Amber le Bon also attended the Awards. She wore a blue and white halter dress with slash pockets by Peter Pilotto from the Resort 2012 collection. She paired her dress with suede beige pumps and a gold glitter clutch. Amber wore her hair in a centre-parted low bun. Beautiful!

Model Poppy Delevigne wore a beautiful long-sleeve embroidered gown with an open back by Matthew Williamson from the Spring 2012 collection. She wore natural make-up and wore her hair in a side-swept ponytail. How boho!


My faves? Olivia Palermo, Amber le Bon and Poppy Delevigne!
