Lily Allen and the Spice Girls were among the winners at last night's Glamour Women of the Year Awards (03.06.08).

Lily - who dyed her hair a shocking bright pink for the occasion - received the Editor's Special Award in recognition of her career as a singer, TV presenter and style queen.

Introducing Lily at the event in London's Berkeley Square Gardens, Glamour magazine editor Jo Elvin said: "With reams of column inches to match her considerable talents, no Women of the Year line-up could be complete without the one and only Lily Allen."

As well as debuting her new hair colour at the event, Lily shocked onlookers by wearing a pale pink dress decorated with 'Bambis', the baby deer immortalised in the Disney film of the same name, with their throats slit.

Commenting on her new hair colour, Lily said: "I did it myself in the bathroom. I'm happy with it."

Lily celebrated her win with numerous drinks, and was seen later in the evening being propped up by her music producer friend Mark Ronson. The worse-for-wear star eventually had to be carried out.

The Spice Girls were named Band of the Year after their triumphant comeback world tour earlier this year.

Geri, Emma Bunton and Mel B were all present to collect their accolade.

Other winners included Kate Beckinsale who was named Actress of the Year and Kate Moss who won Entrepreneur of the Year for her Topshop fashion range.

Ronson was the lone male winner - he picked up the coveted Man of the Year award, and attended the event with his model girlfriend Daisy Lowe.

The awards are voted for by the readers of Britain's Glamour magazine.
