Lebanese British human rights lawyer Amal Clooney this week wore a glittering gown as she attended The Fashion Awards 2023 in London.
The 45-year-old philanthropist wore a head-turning bronze-and-gold Atelier Versace gown that was covered in circular metallic paillettes. She had her hair down and opted for voluminous waves.
For the accessories, she donned Cartier jewelry.
The event, which took place at London’s Royal Albert Hall, was also attended by Danish model Mona Tougaard, who is of Turkish, Somali and Ethiopian descent.
She wore a sheer white dress from Maison Alaia’s Spring/Summer 2023 ready-to-wear collection.
Meanwhile, US singer and TV presenter Ashley Roberts stepped out in a fully sequined floor-length gown from Lebanese couturier Georges Hobeika’s Fall/Winter 2023 ready-to-wear collection. The color palette of the dress ranged from deep black to vibrant shades of purple, blue and green.
The fashion event honors industry leaders and young creative talent.
Spanish luxury brand Loewe’s creative director Jonathan Anderson won the designer of the year prize, Reuters reported.
Anderson, who founded the fashion label JW Anderson, arrived accompanied by actress Taylor Russell.
Italian designer Valentino Garavani, known to the world simply as Valentino, was honored with this year’s outstanding achievement award. Founder of the eponymous brand, the 91-year-old has dressed the rich and famous, created a business empire and introduced a new color to the fashion world, the so-called “Valentino Red.”
American Paloma Elsesser was named model of the year.
The 2023 edition of the award show was hosted by British television presenter Maya Jama and musician Kojey Radical and featured a performance by singer Sam Smith.
Stars attending the event also included actors Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, Tessa Thompson and Pamela Anderson, model Kate Moss and race car driver Lewis Hamilton.
The show is a fundraiser for the British Fashion Council (BFC) Foundation which focuses on supporting the UK’s fashion industry.
