Alexa Chung and Alex Zane revealed as co-hosts of Elle Style Awards
To a packed crowd of shoppers and V.I.P's gathered at H&M on London's Oxford Street last night, Elle's Executive Editor Chris Hemblade announced that Alexa Chung and Alex Zane will co-host this year's Elle Style Awards.
Jade Parfitt, Jasmin Guiness, Poppy Delevigne and Pixie Geldof mingled with hundreds of Elle readers, who came to yesterday's bash - to celebrate the launch of The Elle Style Awards in association with H&M. The champagne flowed as guests enjoyed a bargainous discount shopping night, while designer Henry Holland took to the decks!
"It's such an honour to be asked, we're so excitied about the night" Alexa and Alex told us. And who can blame them. The Elle Style Awards is a always a great night out. Last year guests included Penelope Cruz, Naomi Campbell and Thandie Newton, as well as some of the biggest names in the fashion industry like Stella McCartney and Marchesa's Georgina Chapman.
It promises to be a star studded event - and unlike some of Hollywood awards night's this year, will have a red carpet! - so come back on 13th February for ELLE TV's full coverage of the night.

Yes you read that correctly, designer Dame Vivienne Westwood is releasing an album next week.
She won't be singing though. The record, entitled 'Catwalk Breakdown' is a compilation of her favourite catwalk tracks over the years - and everything from The New York Dolls to Tchaikovsky will feature. “[They are ] pieces that I’ve relied on over all these years — my classics. They’ve never failed me.” She told WWD.
The album lands in Selfridges on September 15th - during London Fashion Week- and the Oxford Street store's Wonderroom will be dedicated to Westwood to mark the occassion.
