Glamour celebrates its 10th anniversary in Madrid

Last night Glamour Spain celebrated the 10th anniversary of the magazine with a garden party at the Italian Embassy in Madrid. But, of course, the night wouldn't have been complete without some awards being given. Eugenia Silva, Judit Mascó, Laura Ponte, Martina Klein, Vanessa Lorenzo and Verónica Blume were named 'Muses of Spanish Fashion'. And very rightly so, when Spanish fashion was still a baby they were already walking in Paris and Milan.
Giles Deacon was awarded 'Design Icon', Poppy Delevigne named as 'Trend Icon', Jason Lewis as 'Masculine Icon', and supermodel Lily Donaldson won the 'Beauty Muse' award.
I was quite impressed with a few of the guests but these on the right are my favourites. Poppy Delevingne would look like a goddess in a tracksuit, so this Julien McDonald dress she wore last night blew my mind. I hate being unfaithful to Poppy but Eugenia Silva rocked my world in her ultra sexy Nicolas Vaudelet. The insane side-slit and embroidered top were as daring as they were chic. Martina Klein went for a red Lanvin number. I loved how she went for a lot of skin at the bottom and a lot of volume on top. Nieves Álvarez probably didn't try very hard but when you're so elegant and you're wearing Giambattista Valli Couture you don't have to.

This morning I had an email from Tod's telling me about their Madrid store reopening, which made me quite happy. I remember walking past their shop on Calle Ortega y Gasset when I was a kid and asking my mum if I could have those shoes in the window. My mum, of course, didn't find very practical for a 6 or 7 year old to wear suede "gomini" so the shoes became a sort of beacon of what I wanted to get to.
Now, I don't mean to say Tod's changed my life or anything cheesy like that. But it's one of those fashion-related childhood memories that makes me happy. Almost as happy as the fact that the new design of the shop matches that of the brand's chic Old Bond Street store. Della Valle dragged out the coolest faces. My favourite Spanish designer, David Delfín, the most beautiful woman in the country, model Nieves Álvarez, and Quim Guitérrez, one of the most stylish Spanish actors around.
