Scottish Fashion Awards 2011 Winners | British Vogue (original) (raw)

JONATHAN SAUNDERS is making a habit of winning: he picked up the Designer of the Year award at last night's Scottish Fashion Awards for the second time in two years. "I've just been texting Chris Kane saying 'Sam Cam's wearing your dress, you're definitely going to win it!' so this is a huge surprise," he said as he accepted the prize. SEE THE PICTURES HERE Samantha Cameron, attending the event in her capacity as an ambassador for the BFC, did indeed wear neon green Kane, whilst fellow nominee Holly Fulton and winner Saunders' collections were also well represented in the guests' attire. Henry Holland, an honorary Scotsman for the evening, picked up the International Designer of the Year award (for best use of Scottish textiles) - whilst his fellow VOGUE.COM blogger David Gandy presented the Model of the Year award to an absent Tali Lennox. WATCH ALL THE SFA ACTION ON VOGUETV But the highlight of the evening, even for the usually non-plussed fashion crowd, was the sight of Shirley Bassey resplendent in a full-length, custom made Graeme Black tartan dress. No Big Spender, but quite a thrill nonetheless.
