On Nov 27, 2009,the British Fashion Council (BFC) announced the shortlist of nominees for the 2009 British Fashion Awards supported by Swarovski. Slated on Wednesday, December 9, 2009, this year’s ceremony brings to a close the British Fashion Council 25th anniversary celebrations.
Recognizing the most influential people in fashion today and celebrating the development of British fashion over the last 25 years, the 11 categories include Designer of the Year, the ultimate accolade, which recognises a leading British designer of couture, ready-to-wear, knitwear or accessories who has directed the shape of fashion in the past year and elevated their international reputation.
This year there will also be a one-off London 25 award which will celebrate an individual who embodies the spirit of London and is an international ambassador for the capital’s fashion industry. The winner of this award will be decided entirely by public vote.
The event will also acknowledge the achievement of one designer who throughout their career has made an exceptional impact on global fashion, with the BFC Award for Outstanding Achievement in Fashion Design.
