Street style photography pioneers - and real-life couple - Scott Schuman and Garance Dore were given the Media Award, Andrew Rosen, the CEO of ‘Theory’ and ‘Helmut Lang’, was honoured with the Founders Award and Tommy Hilfiger received the Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award. Two honourees who were not present to pick up their awards were Commes des Garcons’ Rei Kawakubo, who won the International Award and Johnny Depp, who was given the Fashion Icon Award.
