The British Society of Magazine Editors awards 2023 gala was such a wonderful night.

Known as the Oscars of the magazine world, it was held at five star hotel Rosewood London and the hosts this year were British Glamour Magazine's editor-in-chief Deborah Joseph and presenter/broadcaster and journalist Vick Hope. Presenters included Laura Whitmore, Caitlin Moran and Naomi Campbell . Supermodel Naomi Campbell presented the penultimate award of the night, The Mark Boxer award to friend of 30 years Edward Enninful OBE, editor-in-chief of British Vogue. Congrats to him because representation matters and that has been his life work. 

The gala involved a 3 course meal with entertainment from a live jazz band. Other highlights included live illustration sessions which saw award nominees receive illustrations as made on the night.

For the black tie and for this I was privileged to be dressed by Ana Sekularac in a black tulle gown seen in image one. I've worn Ana’s designs for some of my most special moments. Thanks to her for dressing me. Discover her work at @anasekularac.
