PHILLIP TREACY GETS AWARD FROM THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND

First Manolo Blahnik received an honorary CBE and now Philip Treacy has one. The legendary milliner was awarded the OBE by Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall at a ceremony last month at Clarence House.

The Duchess, who is a known fan of Treacy's work (she wore one of his creations on her wedding day), continues to employ the designer for her hat needs. Treacy grew to fame via his friendship with the late Isabella Blow who was rarely seen without one of his creations on her head.

His international company sells accessories worldwide and he recently expanded into interiors for hotels.
