After going virtual last year, the 2021 MTV Europe Music Awards were held in-person in Budapest, Hungary, at the Papp László Budapest Sportaréna. Hosted by American rapper Saweetie, the awards saw a long list of the world’s best musicians — both nominated and in attendance — with Ed Sheeran, Maluma, Måneskin, Yungblud, Kim Petras, and Griff all performing live. And while the performances are amazing, one of the other exciting aspects of the EMAs was the celebrity fashion, and as with many music award shows, they did not disappoint. Rita Ora brought glamour to the red carpet in a black jumpsuit with a feathered bodice and feathered train. Griff went for her signature cute aesthetic, and wore a pastel two-piece set with ornate lace, pearl, and silk details. We loved that Maluma went fo...
After going virtual last year, the Pride of Britain Awards returned in 2021 with an in-person ceremony held at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London. The event was hosted by Carol Vorderman along with Diversity’s Ashley Banjo, who took on the role for the first time after the death of Pride of Britain’s founder, Peter Willis, earlier this year. In its 22nd year, the awards celebrate the best people from around the UK who have extraordinary stories of bravery, heroism, and selflessness.

Banjo looked striking in a navy-and-blac...
Ana de Armas was one of the many celebrities who wowed us with their red carpet fashion at the world premiere of No Time to Die, which was held at Royal Albert Hall in London last night. From shimmering sequined gowns to luxe velvet tuxedo jackets, it was clear the stars were excited to get dressed up for the occasion — and to pay homage to the glamour of the James Bond franchise. De Armas, however, who wore a custom Louis Vuitton gown, also seemed to want to pay homage to the Bond girls who came before her with her sartorial selection for the night. De Armas’s black Louis Vuitton dress featured a plunging neckline, a thigh-high slit, and embellished straps. And whilst many of her fellow Bond girls have worn slinky black dresses in the films, this dress seemed to evoke one Bond girl ...
Well folks, after what feels like five years (OK, maybe it was only a few months), No Time to Die is finally here. And after such a long wait, it was only fitting that the world premiere of Daniel Craig‘s fifth and final James Bond film was a big celebration. Held at Royal Albert Hall in London, every major celebrity in the UK — be it actor, athlete, royal, or Peloton instructor (Leanne Hainsby was there!) — was in attendance. Despite the torrential rain, the stars made it a point to dazzle with their red carpet fashion choices. Always one for bold colour, actor Lashana Lynch stole the show in a vibrant yellow gown by fellow Brit, designer Vivienne Westwood. Phoebe Waller-Bridge returned to the red carpet in a form-fitting black sequins Azzaro jumpsuit, and tennis player Emma Raducan...

This year, the selected theme was “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion”, and Vogue reported that Met Gala regular and fashion icon Lewis Hamilton chose to use his influence at the event to showcase Black designers.

After multiple delays due to the coronavirus pandemic, the 2021 National Television Awards are finally here. Originally scheduled to take place in January, the ceremony — which honours the best of the best of British television — was delayed twice until a September date was eventually set. Hosted by The Masked Singer‘s Joel Dommett, the event took place on 8 Sept. at the O2 Arena in London and aired live on ITV.

With summer coming to an end and in-person events picking back up again (we can’t believe the Met Gala is only two weeks away!), London saw its first fête in the form of British GQ’s Men of the Year Awards held at the Tate Modern. Hosted by Sabrina and Idris Elba, the awards ceremony aim to celebrate people who made the world a better place over the past 12 months. It should come as no surprise that Manchester United footballer Marcus Rashford and actor John Boyega are both on the list — the former for his free school meals campaign for children over the summer holidays, the latter for using his voice and his profile during the Black Lives Matter protests last summer. I May Destroy You writer and actor Michaela Coel is also nominated, as is Paul Mescal for his role in Normal Pe...

When it comes to Billie Eilish, she always goes b...
When it comes to looking sexy, Links”>Elizabeth Hurley knows how to pull out the big guns: classic smoky eyes, a bouncy blowout, and a fabulous, figure-hugging dress. She’s come a long way since that Versace dress that put her firmly in the public eye, but the sultry look quickly became her trademark, and she’s worn plenty more Versace showstoppers since. It doesn’t matter if it’s long or short, Liz has the perfect figure for a slinky dress, and she is not afraid to show it off (she rocks a bikini like a pro, too). She knows her colours: sometimes she’ll pull out a monochrome classic, but she almost always goes for jewel colours and her trademark hot pink. She knows what she likes, and she knocks it out of the park every single time. Don’t belie...
