Listening to the requests of you guys, we are back with our second annual London Runway Sustainability Awards! For those who missed it last year, this award puts the highlight on select brands truly making the giant leaps toward ethical and sustainable creativity and design. We had great responses from the first one, so we are even more excited to see the innovative brands and people this time around.  

Process:
With two phases, we have the nominations and then the final public voting. Nominations will be accepted until the 15th of December. The public voting will commence in the December issue when we have our final nominations, and winners will be announced in the January issue!
