The entries for this year’s Awards were so good that the judges couldn’t quite stick to the ‘only three per category’ limit we’d imposed on them.
And so, in the art and fashion categories, the judges felt that a number of other artists deserved recognition:
Art – special commendations
Special commendations were awarded to Naeem Bawany for club photography, Christopher Gray for commercial design and Liam Hopkins for product design.
Fashion – special commendation
A special commendation was awarded to Daniel Clark for the Manchester-based label and boutique, Junk Shop.
Next stop: the awards – we’ll be announcing the Best of Manchester 2008 winners this Thursday. Keep fingers and toes crossed for your favourites…
