Instead, all members of the team, including players, coaches, managers, trainers, support staffers, and practice squad players, gathered for a ceremony open to the media and members of the "G-Hive" club. Staley expressed her heartfelt gratitude in a brief speech, stating that she hoped they could continue to make everyone proud.

Рианна, Джулия Фокс и Алекса Чанг: Премии British Fashion Awards 2024
2024-12-03
В декабре произошло важное фэшн-событие — церемония вручения премии British Fashion Awards. Эта награда, аналогичная BAFTA в модной индустрии, собрала в Королевском Альберт-холле в Лондоне топовогоcelebriti-состав, винтажный кутюр и главные тренды.

Таглайн: «Собираемся в Лондоне за грандиозными премиями в моде!»

Главные участники

На сцене были видны такие знаменитости, как Рианна в архивном Christian Lacroix FW’02 и A$AP Rocky в Bottega Veneta. Стелла Маккартни, Анна Винтур и Баз Лурман также присутствовали. Джулия Фокс в Dilara Findikoglu, Алекса Чанг в Miu Miu, Симон Эшли в Prada, Джоди Тернер-Смит в Burberry, Леоми Андерсон в Iris Van Herpen, Амбика Мод в Loewe, Икрам Абди Омар в Richard Quinn, Моня Пастель в архивном Christian Lacroix, Моня Тугаард в Schiaparelli, Мишель Лами в Rick Owens, Шон Макгирр и Кэролайн Полачек в Alexander McQueen.

Очевидно, что Джонатан Андерсон второй год подряд получил главную награду BFA «Лучший дизайнер года». Он заявил: «Я люблю моду. Она заставляет меня вставать с постели каждое утро». Затем он обратился к Тому Форду, получившему приз за бесценный вклад в развитие модной индустрии. «Каждый раз, когда происходит что-то хорошее, Том Форд находится с нами в одной комнате».

Победители и призеры

Симон Роша был признан лучшим британским дизайнером женской одежды, а Грейс Уэльс Боннер — лучшей в мужском сегменте одежды. 16Arlington и Ahluwalia получили многообещающие фрешмены. Жюри отметило спецпризом лондонский кампейн Gucci «We Will Always Have London» с Дебби Харри, снятый Нан Голдин. Лучшим дизайнером аксессуаров стал Stephen Jones, лучшей модельой — Алекс Консани, а A$AP Rocky — арт + фэшн визионером.

Тренды на красной дорожке

Главный конкурент трендового зеленого и каноничного черного стал бирюзовый. Рианна в винтажном платье Christian Lacroix FW’02 и Икрам Абди Омар в Richard Quinn проголосовали за него. Подиумные архивы также были актуальны: Лила Мосс выбрала костюм Alexander McQueen из коллекции SS’03, Палома Фейт — платье Prada SS’09, а Джулия Хоббс обратилась к архивам Gucci эры Тома Форда.

Мрачные полупрозрачные ткани продолжают быть хитом black-tie гардероба. Моня Тугаард в Schiaparelli, Кэролайн Полачек в дарк-кружеве Alexander McQueen, Сабрина Эльба в Victoria Beckham и Эшли Грэм в тюле Blumarine предпочитают такие ткани.

Важно отметить, что прогнозируем скорое возвращение Давида Комахидзе (петербуржца в анамнезе!) в модный авангард. Он смело позиционировался вместе с Лили Макменами, Эшли Грэм, Викторией де Анджелис, Аличе Пагани, Малой Эль Маслуи и Джорджией Палмер (амбассадорский стартерпак!).
