"Vivienne has had an undeterred loyalty and unparalleled love and passion for Scottish textiles and fabrics, which she has consistently used within her collections throughout the years," Tessa Hartmann, the founder of the awards, said. "She personifies the powerful and subversive originality of British fashion and has done more for Scottish textiles than probably any other designer of her generation.
Her brand name is synonymous with the tartan pattern and her fascination for this iconic fabric is unrelenting. By using a mix of different tartans, her ensembles explore the rich depth of colour and diversity of the traditional checked pattern that is adorned around the world."
"The Scottish fashion industry will be forever indebted to Dame Westwood, who has established a lasting legacy for Scottish textiles, yarns and fabrics," the secretary of state for Scotland, Alistair Carmichael, said.
The event will be attended as always by a host of high-profile fashion names including Christopher Kane, Holly Fulton, Tali Lennox, Pam Hogg, Jean Campbell, Sam McKnight and David Gandy.
