Forget the Met Gala, Oscars and Cannes Film Festival. At this time of year, it's all about The Fashion Awards – and most importantly, seeing all our favourite celebs decked out in all their most glamorous, fashion-forward and cutting-edge looks for the red carpet. And trust us when we say, last night's event was by far the most fabulous yet...

Held each year at the spectacular Royal Albert Hall in London, The Fashion Awards are hosted by the British Fashion Council in order to raise money for its charities and "amplify leaders of change, celebrate excellence in creativity and support the next generation of creative talent". Excitingly for 2023, the event was also presented by everyone's most-loved jewellery brand, Pandora – which means iconic brand ambassadors including Pamela Anderson, Ashley Park and Michaela Coel were front and centre of the festivities. They joined the likes of Anne Hathaway, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Moss, Amal Clooney and Rita Ora on the red carpet, alongside celebrity super-stylist Law Roach, countless models, editors, designers and trailblazers of the fashion world.

And much to our delight, there were some serious looks paraded down the red carpet. Click through to see the wildest, most chic, most surprising, and most extra looks of evening.
