FB Fashion Ball is all about celebrating Yorkshire businesses and their people. It not only gathers the business community to celebrate the award winners but has gained a renowned reputation for its live fashion show. 

Business leaders and professionals are invited to model for their chosen local charity to raise awareness and funds. 

The models are styled wearing the latest trends from John Lewis & Partners, Reiss, Ted Baker, Jigsaw, Hawes & Curtis, Rebecca Rhoades ROC, Nancee and Glamour Rocks to name a few. 

2024 sees the growth of its dedicated sustainable fashion scene promoting the important message of sustainable fashion and showcasing various independent local brands, whilst collaborating with and supporting women’s charity Smart Works in Leeds.

Alongside the Hero Awards, anticipation is rising as we eagerly await to see which high profile business leaders and professionals from across Yorkshire will step out in style on the catwalk.

Models are already signed up and raring to go from Squire Patton Boggs, RSM, LCF Law, EY, Addleshaw Goddard, Deloitte, PwC, Schofield Sweeney, Knights, Clarion, Thomas Coombs, Walker Morris, Ridley & Hall, Gunnercooke, KPMG, Ford Campbell Freedman, Leonard Curtis and Ward Hadaway.
