Christopher Bailey Makes The Fashion Hall Of Fame

Christopher Bailey received the Hall of Fame accolade at the annualWGSN Global Fashion Awards last night. The event - which was yesterday staged at the Victoria & Albert Museum - celebrates fashion's most innovative talents from around the world.

The Hall of Fame honour is the ceremony's most prestigious award and is given to an individual who has "furthered the interests of the industry, broken new ground and inspired the world," aWGSN statement read this morning. Previous winners of the prize include photographer Rankin and Biba founder Barbara Hulanicki.

Earlier this month, Bailey was named Burberry CEO, replacing Angela Ahrents - who has left to become senior vice president for retail and online stores at Apple. He still maintains his position as chief creative officer.
