Glamour magazine was launched in the UK in April 2001, where it pioneered the “handbag size” format, with the tagline “fits in your life as well as your handbag”.
Each June, Glamour organizes the Glamour Women of the Year Awards which recognise women in the public eye.
There are a lot of popular British celebrities to come and honor the winners!
The UK Glamour Women Of The Year Awards 2009 were held June 2 2009 in Berkeley Square Gardens, London.
Guests included Alexa Chung, Rosie Huntington-Whitley, Pixie Geldof, Henry Holland, Jacquetta Wheeler, singer Adele, Ugly Betty’s Becki Newton, Gossip Girl’s Ed Westwick and others.
And of course, we expected many beautiful dresses and styles. But unfortunally, there were not a lot of stylish women present. They were named Glamour women but not all looked glam enough for the title.
Ok, let’s see what fashion was presented at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards 2009 redcarpet.
Katy Perry and Kylie Minogue received the major honours at the glitzy ceremony in London.
The I Kissed A Girl singer picked up the Newcomer of The Year prize.
Katy Perry was in a hot silk blue strapless mini dress with a big bow on the waist, multi-strap red high heel sandals and red clutch. As usual, she had great make up and haistyle.
She was one of the most beautiful women at the party.
Australian pop singer Kylie Minogue claimed two trophies - Entrepreneur of the Year and Woman of The Year.
She arrived in a short monochrome with attitude dress and leopard print cloak. She accessoried her view with gold box-clitch, gold heels and large oval pendant necklace.
American singer Estelle won the Editor’s Special Award, and Adele took the U.K. Solo Artist of The Year accolade. She put on an interesting style dress – black and white colors.
British television presenter Fearne Cotton arrived at the Glamour Women of the year awards held at the Berkeley Square in Central London in a red satin dress, with a huge ruffled skirt, in red pumps, with her blonde hair styled in a frizzy wave.
Mamma Mia! starlet Amanda Seyfried also attended the British Glamour’s annual prizegiving. She was in a multi-coloured dress and a trendy pair of gladiator heels.
Ugly Betty actress Becki Newton took home the Comedy Actress award. She was hot in her mini dress!
Theatre Actress of the Year Joanna Page was classy in her navy V-neck outfit.
British pop group Girls Aloud also enjoyed a double win.
They were named Band of The Year, and singer Cheryl Cole has received the TV Personality of The Year award for her turn on the judging panel of British talent show The X Factor.
As for me, I think that style of Presenter of the Year Alexa Chung was boring. She was all in pastel colors. Nothing special.
Writer of the Year Sophie Kinsella dressed in flower-prints dress.

agree with you Erin Sun, most of the looks gathered here are not qualified to be named as glamour. in fact, far from that.
if one must be picked out, I’d like make it Alex chung, her puffy-shouldered dress is cool and showing her taste on details.
