At the fundraising event for the British Fashion Council, prizes were awarded to several Italian designers, including Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli, who won Designer of the Year.
Italian luxury label Gucci was named Brand of the Year while Italian designer Miuccia Prada was honoured with an Outstanding Achievement Award.
Other winners included designer Virgil Abloh who was recognised with an Urban Luxe prize for his Off-White brand, Balenciaga's Demna Gvasalia who won Accessories Designer of the Year and Kim Jones, Dior's artistic director for menswear, who was named 2018 Trailblazer.
