John Galliano, Rick Owens and Miuccia Prada Nominated For BFC Designer of the Year

As a seasoned gamer of the fashion world, I must say that this year’s British Fashion Council nominees have truly outdone themselves. The Designer of the Year category is particularly tantalizing with heavyweights like John Galliano and Miuccia Prada vying for the coveted title. However, it’s Chemena Kamali’s swift rise at Chloé that has caught my eye. A year ago, she was just a name on the fashion radar, and now she’s a nominee! Talk about leveling up quickly!

For the 2024 British Fashion Awards, the British Fashion Council has revealed its list of nominees. Among those vying for the highly sought-after Designer of the Year award are Chemena Kamali (Chloé), John Galliano (Maison Margiela), Jonathan Anderson (JW Anderson & LOEWE), Miuccia Prada (Miu Miu), Pieter Mulier (Alaïa), and Rick Owens (Rick Owens).

1. John Galliano’s creations, particularly his 2024 Artisanal Collection, have cemented him as an exceptional figure in the fashion world at Maison Margiela. Chemena Kamali has earned a nomination for her work at Chloé, where she has served as director for less than a year. Both Jonathan Anderson and Miuccia Prada experienced remarkable years with their respective brands, LOEWE and Miu Miu, consistently creating buzzworthy moments.

Among those up for the runner-up title, Model of the Year, are Alex Consani, Anok Yai, and Amelia Gray. Their nominations are based on their global influence in the modeling world during the past year, where they have excelled and been prominent within the industry.

Additional award categories will be revealed in November, such as Special Recognition Awards, the Isabella Blow Award for Innovative Fashion Designer, Achievement Accolades, Style Icons, and Emerging Talents under the title of NEW WAVE: Creators.

The 2024 Fashion Awards are set for December 2nd at the grand Royal Albert Hall in London. On this day, we’ll learn who among the nominated designers by the British Fashion Council (BFC) has won. Here are the contenders for the year 2024:
