Adwoa Aboah Takes Home British Fashion Awards ‘Model Of The Year’

December 5, 2017. Leave a Comment

The British Fashion Awards took place last night (December 4, 2017) at London’s Royal Albert Hall where Calvin Klein Raf Simons took home designer of the year. At the same time, Off-White designer Virgil Abloh was awarded the urban luxe design, creating yet another awkward moment for Simons, who famously dismissed Abloh in a GQ interview last year.

Following on the heels of her fabulous British Vogue cover (the first under editor-in-chief Edward Eninful’s direction), Adwoa Aboah took home the model of the year award, topping both Hadid sisters. Aboah wore a pink faux fur cape by Burberry on the red carpet and a sequin dress by Michael Halpern who took home the British emerging talent award.

As sponsored by the British Fashion Council, the organization also took a moment to remember lost greats Vogue Italia editor Franca Sozzani and designer Azzedine Alaïa, whose tribute was led by model great Naomi Campbell.

Attendees included Vogue chiefs Anna Wintour and Edward Eninful, FKA Twigs, Jourdan Dunn, Zendaya and Erykah Badu, who presented Aboah with her award.

You're looking at Margeret Zhang, the newly appoin You're looking at Margeret Zhang, the newly appointment Vogue China editor-in-chief. At 27, she's Vogue's youngest edtior. Born in Australian, Zhang began her career in fashion in 2009 with a blog titled Shine By Three. While blogging, Zhang was also attending school and posseses a Bachelor of Commerce and a Bachelor of Laws from the University of Sydney. 

While Zhang looks dope and it's wonderful to see her appointment, according to recent reporting on Conde Nast pub Bon Appetit by Reply All podcast (which, ironically, is currently going through it's own diversity meltdown), chief Anna Wintour first put the word out to staff to hire more editors of color in 2018, yes, 2018, a mere three years ago!
INSANE STORY AHEAD: Lady Gaga's dog walker was sho INSANE STORY AHEAD: Lady Gaga's dog walker was shot in Los Angeles by individual who then stole two of three of her French Bulldogs! The crime took place at 10 PM on Wednesday night in Hollywood. 

According to a recent TMZ update, crime scene video has emerged showing a white car rolling up on the dog walker. Two men emerge from the vehicle and one, who is brandishing a gun, tells the dog walker, "Give it up."

The dog walker put up a fight (!!) before the gun goes off, striking him in the chest. The two thiefs each grab one dog and flee the scene. In the video, the black dog shown here, whose name is Asia, manages to escape and is shown running back to the fallen dog walker. 

Gaga, who is currently in Rome working on a project, is currently offering at $500,00 award for the safe return of Koji and Gustav (on the slide). The dog walker was hospitalized but thankfully will recover.
