award winning shoes

We all know shoes are powerful items in our wardrobe, they can make or break an outfit, they can attract men and they can make you tumble in a heap. Shoe designers dominated the British Fashion Awards this week with designers from one end of the scale to the other, literally. Here are the people you need to know about before you head to the sales at Lane Crawford, which incidentally started today with 50% off...

The It Girl favourites still reign

• Jimmy Choo - Designer Brand Award
• Her surname may be Mellon but gosh she can design cracking shoes for those party girls

Simple but incredibly foxy
