The Scottish Fashion Awards have announced an impressive nominee shortlist for 2012.

The event, which will be hosted by international style icon Alexa Chung on 11th June in Glasgow, recognises the most influential Scottish players in fashion, working in Scotland and around the world.

A host of high profile names are amongst the nominee shortlist including Jonathan Saunders, Christopher Kane, Holly Fulton, April Crichton for Sonia Rykiel, to textile leaders like Hawick Cashmere, Caerlee Mill and Dashing Tweeds. There are a host of young guys shaping Scotland's fashionable future like Obscure Couture, Hayley Scanlan, Jennifer Morris, Bonnie Bling and Marc Ross to a scattering of global supermodels including Tali Lennox, Amanda Hendrick and Chloe Campbell. Nominations were selected from leading figures in fashion and an online nomination system. The finalists will be judged by an exclusive panel made up of professionals from the world's leading fashion houses, the most renowned and respected fashion publications and leading figures in style with winners announced at the glittering awards ceremony at the Clyde Auditorium. Open to the public for the first time the event will feature nominee catwalk shows, surprise music acts and an exclusive Swarovski runway show, previewing for the first time in the UK the upcoming Winter 2012 Kingdom of Jewels fashion and couture collections, created by Nathalie Colin, the Paris based Creative Director.
