Leading designers Kirthi Sri Karunaratne, Sharmini Seneviratne, Yoland Aluvihare, Lou Ching Wong, Chrysanthi Fernando Saverimutto, Eric Suriyasena and Michael Wijesuriya were honoured for their contributions to the fashion industry.

Their creations were showcased on the ramp and there was a burst of fresh talent as aspiring young Lanka Women Fashion designers vied for the coveted title of Designer of the Year with Gihan Ediriweera coming up trumps. Niflah Salahudeen was adjudged first runner-up and Sheruka Mahakumarage second runner-up.
