Women’s Wear Daily will be honoring the fashion and beauty tastemakers, muses and legends whose creativity, craft and style create magic on the red carpet at the inaugural WWD Style Awards presented Jan. 3 at the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills.
The awards are an extension of WWD’s annual Eye on the Red Carpet from the Golden Globes, where WWD experts provide in-depth reporting on the global fashion houses, designers, wardrobe stylists, makeup artists and hairstylists collaborating to create the iconic looks and moments that billions tune into each year during awards season.
“The WWD Style Awards is a testament to the incredible power of the red carpet and how it shapes so many areas of our businesses,” said Amanda Smith, chief executive officer of Fairchild Media Group. “So much time and creativity and craftsmanship go into these moments, and WWD really is the only brand that can tell this story in the way it should be told. I am proud of how this team has built a franchise that celebrates all that the fashion, jewelry and beauty community do to make this magic, and excited for a fantastic evening with the best of the best.”
