The excitement of the Scottish Fashion Awards is already mounting after the success of last year's first ever show, organizers have had to extend the deadline for nominations, due to the high volume of applicants. Budding fashion designers will now have an extra week to apply for an award, which you can do online at http://www.scottishfashionawards.com/, with the closing date being July 6. Categories for the awards show include Scottish Designer Of The Year, Scottish Model Of the Year and Scottish Fashion Awards Communicator Of TheYear.
This year’s judging panel includes Vogue fashion director Kate Phelan, photographer Albert Watson, The Daily Telegraph’s Hilary Alexander and Bridgette Stepputtis head of couture at Vivienne Westwood. Talking about the glamorous event and the influx of Scottish talent Tessa Hartmann, event founder and producer told Vogue:
"When we are flicking through fashion magazines and admiring all the wonderful imagery, I don't think we imagine for a minute there are so many Scots involved in the process," she continued. "From innovative photography and creative styling to trend-setting collections and powerful marketing - the Scots are there. That's what The Scottish Fashion Awards are all about - creating a platform, recognising the talent on a global level - and with our second year we hope to acknowledge even more of fashion's future stars."
Last year’s winners included Christopher Kane who picked up Young Scottish Fashion Designer / New Talent of the Year, Jonathan Sanders won Scottish Designer of the Year and Jennifer Lang was awarded Textiles/Cashmere Designer of the year. The ceremony takes place at Stirling Castle on September 9 and will be hosted by TV presenter Jenni Falconer.
