"At the Fashion awards a lavish event at the Royal Albert Hall this month Jonathan Anderson was named designer of the year for a third time for his work at his own namesake brand and Dior, Anok Yai was named model of the year and Delphine Arnault, the CEO of Dior and scion of fashion's wealthiest family, gained a special recognition award for her work supporting new talent through the LVMH prize."
"For every winner, 1 Granary will list the entire team involved from junior designer to creative director. Instead of repeating the industry's habit of celebrating one figure at the top, we wanted awards that reflect how fashion really operates: collectively, collaboratively, and through thousands of decisions made by teams who never get to walk a red carpet, reads the press release."
