The Queen Elizabeth II Award for British Design is awarded by the British Fashion Council (BFC) in collaboration with the Royal Household. The award recognizes the role of British design and fashion in the country's culture and trade. The award is given to an emerging British fashion designer who shows exceptional talent and originality.
The award is given annually to one recipient. The award is often given out between February-May. The location varies, but often takes place at 180 Strand. 180 Strand was the official venue of London Fashion Week between February 2017 to Feb 2020.
