Footwear Designer of the Year
Presented by Vicki Dean, Head of Fashion & Textiles at the University of Northampton to Ascot International, on behalf of Aruna Seth
Aruna said: “We are delighted to accept this Award as we’re still such a young brand. We’ve grown Aruna Seth over four years; it has been an exciting story of Pippa Middleton and celebrities wearing the shoes, gaining Harrods as a stockist and building the brand to over 50 stockists worldwide. We’re passionate about creating a pretty shoe-line and being a comfortable shoe designer as all of our soles have a cushioned leather padding in the sole."

Personality of the Year, sponsored by Footwear Today
Presented by Event Director Paul Ryder to Charles Clinkard
Charles said: “I was delighted to be nominated and receive this award. Looking back I was fortunate enough to be introduced to the shoe business at a very early age and have to say it has been great fun and I have really enjoyed working with and meeting in some super people. My father was a fantastic character and great mentor for me and as he won this award previously. I am proud to be able to follow in his footsteps. Our business has grown and changed in recent years and a lot of the success has been down to sharing our information and developing good relationships with suppliers and some like-minded retailers. I would hope that this award in a small way is a reflection of our achievements to date.”
