Victoria Beckham, Christian Louboutin and Karl Lagerfeld are among the sartorial stars nominated in WGSN Global Fashion Awards 2013.
The event, at the Victoria & Albert Museum in west London, is designed to reward those individuals who "push the boundaries of fashion".
Beckham, 39, who won at last year's awards, is nominated in the team-design category for Victoria Beckham Denim, the jeans clothing line she launched in 2009.
Speaking to the New York Times at the launch of her autumn/winter collection, she said: "I have expanded the line to include more vintage washes, like the saturated deep indigo and the 70s blues.
"I just wanted to create beautiful clothes, good-quality clothes I wanted to wear myself."
