Simon Kippin, Publishing Director of Glamour comments, “Glamour has always had a huge fashion influence amongst the style-conscious and fashion-savvy women in the UK and I am thrilled to have one of the biggest and most prestigious fashion retailers in the UK partnering us for the Glamour Woman of the Year Awards this year.”
The Glamour Women of the Year Awards celebrates the best of female achievement across film, television, literature, theatre, business, art, fashion, philanthropy and more. Next will bestow its own award, the Next Breakthrough Award, which will honour a brilliant new, emerging talent of 2014.
The Next partnership will support the event at every touch point, with a high level presence at the event in June, and across all media channels; print, digital, social and video, both pre and post Awards.
Christine Gerrard, Marketing Director of Next, says, “We are very excited to be partnering Glamour for the 2014 Women of the Year Awards. It’s a great event on the fashion calendar, full of excitement and opportunity for Next.”
Jo Elvin, Editor of Glamour adds, “The Glamour Women of the Year Awards is acknowledged as one of London's premier awards shows, thanks to our readers who cast hundreds of thousands of votes to recognise some of the world's most successful and inspiring women. Winners understand that a Glamour Award is recognition from the biggest magazine brand audience in the UK. That's why so many A-list attendees make a point of being there on the night to accept the honour. In Next, we have a suitably stylish partner to host the event.”
