Have totally left it to the last minute to get ready, so thank God for my lovely friends Hannah Phillips on hair and Anna Wild on make up to sort me out...thanks girls! xx
Fling on a Jonathan Saunders column gown from his 2007 archive, some Holly Fulton jewellery and my Michael van der Ham twinkly clutch and dash for the door..
The awards are at the Savoy this year and open with an incredibly beautiful and intense film by Nick Knight dedicated to Alexander McQueen. Watch it here...
I get so over excited applauding friends winning awards (congratulations Husam el Odeh! Meadham Kirchhoff! Nicholas Kirkwood! Nicola Formichetti!) that I basically forgot to take any pics...but here's Phoebe collecting her massively deserved Designer of the Year award....
..dinner in the ballroom is fun, our table hosted by Tania Fares is packed with gorgeous friends...Kim Hersov, Richard Nicoll, Dinos Chapman...
...Richard Sloan in black tie (plus velvet Lanvin baseball cap!), and Roksanda in a knockout goddess gown from her Resort collection...
Katie Grand's wearing a mega fringed frock from Giles's 2004 archive..
Emma Elwick in a to die for Meadham Kirchhoff scarlet chiffon frock, check the tinsel under skirt...
Oh good, the bar's still serving. Yasmin le Bon in Chris Kane SS11 holds court with '80s supermodel stories, while Jonny gets involved in Roksy's fur coat...
..Katie styles us for some group shots...
Carriages at 11pm?? Errr..no thanks.
