2018 Fashion Awards nominees unveiled

The Fashion Awards – formerly the British Fashion Awards – have announced its long list of nominees for this year. In 2018 the Urban Luxe category returns, in which Supreme has been nominated for the second consecutive year along with Off-White and Balenciaga.

On the other hand, Martine Rose is nominated male fashion designer of the year, while A-COLD-WALL* and Aries from Sofia Prantera are nominated female fashion designer of the year. Last year, Virgil Abloh‘s brand won the Urban Luxe award, while JW Anderson, Craig Green and Raf Simons collected the rest of the awards.

A long list of names in which no one is missing, and in which bets this year are especially complicated.
