Today, the Chairman of the British Fashion Council, Dame Natalie Massenet, alongside Nadja Swarovski announced the nominees for 2017's Fashion Awards.

The annual ceremony crowns the brightest and best, recognising 'creativity and innovation in fashion.'

And though we don't want to stoke the fires of sisterly competition, it looks like the Hadid siblings are both up for the prestigious title of 'Model of the Year,' though, they are not alone in the category.

Elder of the two, 22 year-old Gigi, won 'International Model of the Year' last time around, so will she make it a second time lucky?

Alongside the Californian sisters Bella and Gigi, Adwoa Aboah, Kaia Gerber and Winnie Harlow got a name-check from the Swarovski-partnered awards ceremony.

On the 4th of December the favoured few will descend on London's Royal Albert Hall for the gala ceremony to find out who wins what.

The much-heralded 'Designer of the Year' nominations included Calvin Klein's Raf Simons, Céline's Phoebe Philo, Dior's Maria Grazia Chiuri, Loewe's Jonathan Anderson and Gucci's Alessandro Michele.

With rumours a-swirling around Philo's exit from Céline, it would be moving to see her win, though we don't like to play favourites.

Anderson is also up for the 'Womenswear British Designer of the Year' against the likes of Christopher Kane, Erdem Moralioglu and more, as well as the 'Menswear Designer of the Year' against Grace Wales Bonner, Christopher Bailey and more.

Of course Rihanna got a nod in the 'Urban Luxe Brand' category for her FENTY PUMA line.

Whilst the 'Womenswear British Emerging Talent' category (last year won by tulle Queen Molly Goddard) includes cult favourites like Matty Bovan, Rejina Pyo, Michael Halpern, Faustine Steinmetz and more.

Who's is looking forward to the red carpet snaps?
