Many of this year’s nominees have charted significant social media moments this year – like Galliano’s internet-breaking couture show for Maison Margiela in January or Jonathan Anderson’s major Met Gala moments with Loewe – boosting the international digital buzz around the event. However, one notable absence is Daniel Lee, who is back home in the UK at Burberry. In 2019, during his tenure at Bottega Veneta, Lee dominated the awards by winning four categories, including Brand of the Year, Womenswear Designer of the Year, Accessories Designer of the Year, and Designer of the Year.
The 2024 awards will recognize achievements in various categories, including Model of the Year, British Menswear Designer, British Womenswear Designer, Designer of the Year, BFC Foundation Award, Isabella Blow Award for Fashion Creator, Outstanding Achievement Award, and Leader of Change. Additionally, a new category, British Accessories Designer, has been introduced to spotlight the nation’s jewelry, millinery, and footwear designers.
Nominees for the inaugural British Accessories Designer category include Anna Jewsbury for Completedworks, Helen Kirkum for Helen Kirkum Studio, Jack Cannon and Joe Gelb for Hatton Labs, Rosh Mahtani for Alighieri, and Stephen Jones for Stephen Jones.
American photographer Tyler Mitchell has also been named the recipient of the Isabella Blow Award for Fashion Creator at this year’s event.
