Meanwhile, Fortnum & Mason chief executive Ewan Venters won the Luxury Leader award.
The annual Walpole British Luxury Awards celebrates the best high-end products, services and individuals from a diverse range of British businesses, spanning multiple sectors: from fashion, fragrance and fine jewellery to hotels, automobiles and accessories.
Those on the judging panel for this year’s awards included Harrods managing director Michael Ward, Gieves & Hawkes chairman Mark Henderson, and several others.
Organisers of Walpole British Luxury Awards say the British luxury sector is worth over £48 billion to the UK economy.
