Kate Middleton presented the Queen’s Design Award

Kate Middleton attended the British Fashion Council Awards at the London Design Museum last Wednesday. At the event, Her Highness met with local fashion designers who are sponsored by various creative initiative funds such as the British Fashion Council, NEWGEN, Fashion Trust and the BFC/Vogue Designer Fashion Fund, as well as the BFC/GQ Designer Fashion Fund.

The award, established by Her Majesty, gradually became a tradition. The award has already been presented by several representatives of the royal family, including Elizabeth II herself in 2018. Then the prize was awarded to designer Richard Quinn, whose clothes are worn by the famous British lawyer and wife of George Clooney, Amal. In 2019, the Duchess of Cornwall was in this place, in 2020, Princess Anne, and finally, the Countess Sophie of Wessex. And now it’s the turn of the Duchess of Cambridge.

Kate Middleton seems to enjoy discovering new or hitherto unknown fashion names herself. She looked stylish and concise in a dark turquoise dress by Canadian designer Adeline Lee. The Duchess presented the award to fashion designer Saul Nash, who was warmly received by the public. In her speech, Kate praised all the talented designers who took part in the event.

It is a great honor for me to be here today. I have heard many inspiring stories about British art and seen the incredible work of many talented people. Well done, congratulations,” she said.

Young talent Nash was incredibly flattered by the award received from the hands of the royal person. The guy creates technological sportswear.

I grew up in London and after the sixth grade of college I went to study performance art. I never intended to become a fashion designer, but it happened naturally, – said Saul Nash – I wanted to create sportswear and challenge the stereotypes about it. In truth, I don’t like to dress up even for special occasions, but I just wear what I like to wear. It’s about self-expression.

At the end of the official part of the event, the guests were treated to a fashion show featuring dancers dressed in some of the winner’s designer outfits.

Recall that in late April, Kate Middleton and Prince William attended a memorial service at Westminster Abbey. The Duchess came out in a cream dress, in which in 2015 she and William christened their daughter, Princess Charlotte. By the way, Charlotte turned 7 last Monday. On this occasion, Kate shared new portraits of the princess, which she made herself.
