The Fashion Awards 2025: The Best-Dressed Stars Who Have Defined the Red Carpet Over the Years

The Fashion Awards 2025

As we get ready for the biggest night in British fashion, we’re taking a look back at the stars who have defined The Fashion Awards red carpet over the years. Every year, London becomes the centre of global fashion, a place where Hollywood elegance meets British cool, where designers and muses, icons and newcomers set the tone for what luxury looks like next. And while trends shift, one thing remains constant: the stars who repeatedly dominate the spotlight with their unmistakable presence, polish and confidence.

Across the years, a handful of names have quietly (and quite spectacularly) shaped The Fashion Awards’ style identity. They’re the celebrities who don’t just wear clothes — they understand the assignment, creating moments that feel both iconic and timeless. These are the women (and one very stylish power couple) whose appearances have helped define the event itself.

Below, the Chic Style Collective edit of the best-dressed stars in Fashion Awards history — the ones who always deliver.

Ellie Goulding: Ethereal, Confident, and Consistently Surprising

Ellie Goulding’s Fashion Awards journey has been one of evolution. What makes her one of the best-dressed is not just the outfits, but her ability to shift between ethereal softness and bold confidence without ever losing her signature cool-girl energy. She captures the spirit of modern British glamour — unfussy, slightly undone, and always visually striking. Ellie’s red-carpet moments feel fresh every single year.

Stella McCartney: The Designer Who Always Dresses Like the Moment

Stella McCartney’s presence at The Fashion Awards is its own masterclass in what it means to be a fashion insider. She dresses with intention, clarity, and that unmistakable British minimalism she helped define. Stella doesn’t follow style rules — she quietly rewrites them. Her appearances always embody clean lines, fluid silhouettes, and a sustainability-first ethos that reflects where luxury is now heading. She doesn’t just attend The Fashion Awards; she anchors it.

Florence Pugh: The Fearless Fashion Rebel

Florence Pugh has become one of the most exciting, fearless faces on any red carpet, and her Fashion Awards appearances are no exception. She dresses with boldness, wit, and an unapologetic confidence that instantly commands attention. Florence isn’t afraid of risk — but she does it with a level of refinement that elevates every look. She represents a new generation of British fashion influence: boundary-pushing, self-assured, and endlessly compelling.

Maya Jama: Britain’s New-Era Style Superstar

No one serves red-carpet charisma quite like Maya Jama. She understands glamour — real glamour — the kind that’s magnetic, confident, and undeniably fashion-forward. Maya has become a staple of The Fashion Awards because she brings something different: she feels current. Her looks resonate with a younger, global audience while still capturing that refined, high-octane drama the event is known for. She is the face of British-born star power, and every appearance proves it.
