Maya Jama had Connor Ives to thank for another successful red carpet appearance as she attended the British Fashion Awards on Monday evening.
The Love Island presenter, 30, looked incredible in a sweeping lime silk gown as she arrived at London’s Royal Albert Hall ahead of the annual ceremony.
But she needed a helping hand from Ives, who held her flowing train as they walked the red carpet inside the cavernous venue.
Adorned with floral embroidered detailing and tassels, Maya’s dress proved to be a fashion highlight on a night dedicated to the very best of haute couture.
The event unites the global fashion community in London, the home of fashion and creativity, to amplify leaders of change, celebrate excellence and support the next generation of creative talent.
It serves as the main fundraiser for the BFC Foundation, which supports the future growth and success of the British fashion industry through its focus on education, grant-giving, and business mentoring.
