was honoured with the Style Icon gong

Emma Watson, 20, was honoured with the Style Icon gong at the event but was no doubt left feeling uncomfortable when Vivienne Westwood, who was presenting the trophy, admitted she’d no idea who the actress was.

Looking stunning in a cream dress and her pixie crop Emma was all set for a night to remember.

But she may have regretted her request that the British fashion designer present her with the award after the 69-year-old’s unusual speech.

Taking to the stage Vivienne said that she came to the event to “find out who people were”, including Harry Potter actress Emma.
“I don’t watch TV, I go to the cinema perhaps once a year and I don’t read magazines so I come here to find out who people are. I was told Emma is in the Harry potter films but I’ve never seen Harry Potter,” she told the fashionable guests at London’s Great Connaught Rooms. She added: “I want to give this award to Emma, who I have never met.”

Her comments were met with gasps and laughter from guests, while an embarrassed Emma came to the stage. Despite Vivienne’s speech she thanked the designer for presenting her with the award.

Emma, said to be worth £19million, was joined by a host of other stars at the do, including Cheryl Cole, Dermot O’Leary, Alexa Chung – who hosted the awards – and Sophie Ellis Bextor.

They enjoyed a three-course dinner followed by Beefeater 24 Cosmos cocktails and Valentine’s chocolates at the after-party where Boy George, in DJ mode, took to the decks.
