We’re saving this picture for any time someone suggests modest fashion is boring. Look at that mix of textures, and the bold tomato red coat against the black. Inspired styling. She’s wearing Topshop.

Adwoa Aboah won the evening’s coveted model of the year title, and wore British designers Halpern to collect.

Karlie Kloss wore tomato-red Vivienne Westwood.

Versace were also very well represented at the event, with FKA Twigs, Jourdan Dunn, Stella Maxwell, Irina Shayk and Rita Ora all opting for designs from the Italian house. Our pick of the bunch is Ora’s high-sparkle vintage number.

Outstanding.

Makeup artist Pat McGrath was a big winner on the awards front – she went home with the Isabella Blow Award for Fashion Creator. Designer Stella McCartney was presented with a Special Recognition Award for Innovation, and Donatella Versace was given a Fashion Icon Award.
