About

Nick Knight was chosen to receive the prestigious Möet & Chandon Fashion Tribute 2006. To mark the occasion, he staged a lavish and spectacular Masked Ball on Tuesday 24th October. The event was attended by a wealth of international personalities from the world of fashion, photography, film, music, and art who had worked with Nick throughout his 25+ year career. The full proceedings were broadcast live on SHOWstudio and the run up to the event was documented in detail on the site. Nick challenged ten designers and one stylist with whom he had worked most closely to design an outfit, complete with mask for a 'muse' of their choosing, who would wear it to the ball. In addition, there was a unique opportunity for two SHOWstudio viewers to win a much-coveted ticket by designing an outfit and mask for our ‘You Shall Go to the Ball’ competition. All twelve designs were auctioned after the event, with proceeds going The Princes Trust.
