20 Best Looks From The British Fashion Awards 2019

These celebrities really knocked their looks out of the park, giving us loads of festive season dressing inspo….

London's Royal Albert Hall was recently packed with A-listers for the British Fashion Awards, the biggest night in British fashion. And as the annual event aims to celebrate ‘creativity and innovation’ in fashion and pays homage to the best fashion industry creatives, an uber-stylish star-studded guestlist is always guaranteed.

Aptly leading the best-dressed list were British fashion forces Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Naomi Campbell. Huntington-Whiteley, who hails from Devon, glowed on the red carpet wearing a long gold gown with a halterneck by Bottega Veneta, the label she presented the Brand of the Year award to. The custom-made gown was created by Daniel Lee, the wonder boy behind the brand, who also won Accessories Designer of the Year, Womenswear Designer of the Year and Designer of the Year. Meanwhile, Campbell, who was awarded the evening’s Icon Award, looked breathtaking in an Alexander McQueen gown and accessories. The sheer black gown featured crystal embellishments and a high neckline, and was the perfect choice for Campbell while she presented the brand’s Sarah Burton the Trailblazer Award.

Rihanna, who looked like a vision in a mint green satin mini bustier dress with corset back, won another gong for best look. The designer and singer accessorised the dress by her label Fenty, winner of Urban Luxe, with matching gloves, heels and an organza wrap with diamanté straps and back that fell from a built-in choker. Influencer Chiara Ferragni also looked gorgeous in a green and blue hued custom-made dress by Etro, which had cut-out detailing around the waist, metallic flecks and a revealing split. Another stunner in green was Adut Akech, who walked home with the Model of the Year trophy. The South Sudanese-Australian beauty got into the festive spirit in a strapless emerald green Valentino dress with a thigh-high split and bow that’s hard to ignore.

Additionally, while handing out the Outstanding Achievement Award to Giorgio Armani, Julia Roberts dazzled in a black velvet jumpsuit with plunging neckline and ornate silver embellishment, created by the Italian fashion maestro. The other presenter, Cate Blanchett, a face and muse of the brand, looked like fashion royalty in an Armani Privé frock. The Oscar-winning actress’s ivory dress featured tiers of tulle, a ruffled neckline and an A-line skirt.
