32 Creative Fashion Influencers to be Honoured
01-12-2016
Over 1,500 key members of the global fashion industry including media, retailers, creatives and key opinion formers were called upon to vote for this year’s accolades. Voters, representing all major fashion territories, were able to put forward creative individuals they believed should be recognised for exceptional achievements and excellence throughout 2016.
Creative Influencer nominees have been recognised as the individuals behind the images, the shows and the campaigns whose influence has shone this year. This award celebrates creative visions as team efforts, acknowledging not only the big names behind the label but the individuals that contribute to make that name.
To reflect the 32nd anniversary of the first Fashion Award given by the BFC, 32 creative influencers are to be honoured during a special moment during the gala ceremony, held at the iconic Royal Albert Hall.

Dame Natalie Massenet, Chairman British Fashion Council commented: “A key part of our new focus for The Fashion Awards is ensuring we recognise all of the industry’s key players. 32 years after giving our first award this new approach means recognising excellence in both business and design, as well as putting a spotlight on creatives working outside both of these spheres. The 32 Creative Influencers to be celebrated this year are part of a community of innovative talent that is the backbone of our industry, and makes it one of the most dynamic and exciting to work in.”
The Fashion Awards 2016 will celebrate the best talent from the global fashion community and will be the inaugural annual fundraiser gala for the British Fashion Council Education Foundation charity.
The awards will take place Monday 5th December 2016 at the Royal Albert Hall.
