Internet sensation Amelia Dimoldenberg left her flashcards at home to walk The Fashion Awards red carpet on Dec. 4 in London, proving that ribbons and bows arenât just for presents, theyâre one of this seasonâs hottest trends too. The Chicken Shop Date host stunned in a Chopova Lowena suit complete with an abundance of metallic hooks and charms, as well as long black and white ribbons hanging from her jacket bodice and sleeves.
She shared the look with her 1.6 million followers on Instagram writing, âIt suits me đ British Fashion Awards wearing custom @chopovalowena đ« jewellery @theofficialpandora Congratulations to @chopovalowena for winning New Establishment Womenswear Award đ very well deserved!â
The London-based brand was founded by Emma Chopova and Laura Lowena-Irons in 2017, and is known for their focus on sustainability, using recycled materials and deadstock textiles to ethically create high-quality garments.
I have to wonder if one of those recycled materials happened to be the key hanging from Dimoldenbergâs suit, which she cheekily described as the âkey to her heartâ on her IG stories and in her comments.
With her slicked-back hair and expertly-lined dark lips, this look is just one of Dimoldenbergâs many high-fashion moments from a standout year. From flirting with Andrew Garfield at the 80th Golden Globe Awards in January, to hosting the European premiere of Barbie (dressed as the 2010 News Anchor Barbie, no less!) in July, to attending the Maison Valentino show at Paris Fashion Week in October, Dimoldenberg has solidified her presence in the media industry as the ârefreshingly awkwardâ host of choice and a low-key fashion It Girl.
Honestly, I shouldâve known she was that girl a year ago at her first Fashion Awards red carpet â where she beat us all to the ribbons and bows trend â wearing a custom silk charmeuse gown by Coach that featured a bow under the collar and hand-embroidered daisy appliquĂ©s. I mean, she even accessorized with black bow earrings! Talk about staying on top of the trends!!
To follow Dimoldenbergâs lead and finally join in on the ribbons and bows trend, try incorporating them into your accessories! A few ribbons tied around your purse handle, your shoes, or even in your hair can be a subtle way to elevate any look. Or, if youâre really committed, try pinning some ribbon to the sleeves, collar, or buttons of your favorite chunky sweater for a delicate touch.
Iâm so excited to see how Dimoldenberg will continue her red carpet reign in the new year. Hereâs to manifesting many more awkward and fashionable moments. Who knows, maybe sheâll return to her fashion communication roots and blend her passions to give me the Anna Wintour Chicken Shop Date Iâve been waiting for. Itâs a long shot, but a girl can dream!
