Weaving the Future: Walpole Luxury Award Winner 2024✨

Monday, 18th November 2024

Araminta Campbell awarded the prestigious WOLF Award for Future Legacy at the Walpole British Luxury Awards 2024 in London at the Dorchester!

Last night (Monday 18th of November), beneath the glittering chandeliers of The Dorchester in Mayfair, the world of British luxury came together for the Walpole British Luxury Awards 2024. The evening was a celebration of creativity, craftsmanship, and cultural legacy, qualities we hold close to our hearts at Araminta Campbell.

As the evening unfolded, surrounded by luminaries like Luke Evans, Bianca Jagger, and Tinie Tempah, we were honoured to be recognized with the WOLF Award for Future Legacy. This new and prestigious accolade shines a spotlight on brands committed to preserving and advancing the skills and traditions that define the essence of luxury.

It was a moment of immense pride as Araminta, accompanied by Ruth, a member of our talented team, stepped onto the stage to accept the award from actress and writer Amelia Gething and Simon Wolf, CEO of WOLF. Simon’s family-run brand, much like ours, is dedicated to timeless craft and excellence, making the moment all the more meaningful.

Honoring Tradition, Crafting the Future

This award is a profound recognition of what drives us every day: the preservation of Scotland’s handweaving heritage and the creation of opportunities for future generations of artisans. It acknowledges the countless hours of work, the dedication to quality, and the unwavering belief that the skills of the past have a vital role in shaping the luxury of tomorrow.

As Araminta shared in her speech:

“It is wonderful to be recognised for our work in sustaining the craft of weaving and to have Ruth, who started with us as a handweaver with me tonight. To receive the WOLF award this evening only drives us to do more. Thank you to WOLF for sponsoring this award, Walpole for their support, our partners and clients and to my team and my family for sharing my dream.”

A Night to Remember

The atmosphere at The Dorchester was one of celebration and camaraderie—a coming together of the people and brands who shape British luxury.

Araminta wore a one-of-a-kind handwoven Signature Wide Scarf, styled by Zoë Rodrigues, reflecting the values and beauty of our designs. Ruth shone in our Beech Dappled Skies Wide Scarf, embodying the talent and artistry of our team. Together, they represented the heart of what we do: celebrating craft, people, and place.

Thank You to Our Community

This award is not just ours—it belongs to every partner, client, and supporter who has shared our journey. You’ve believed in the importance of preserving Scotland’s textile heritage, and you’ve helped us prove that traditional skills have a vibrant role in contemporary luxury.

Winning the WOLF Award for Future Legacy is a milestone, but it’s also a beginning. It fuels our plans to expand opportunities for apprenticeships, empower craftspeople, and continue creating pieces that connect people to Scotland’s landscapes and traditions.

Looking Forward

As we return to our atelier in Scotland, the echoes of this evening stay with us, filling us with purpose and determination. Placing the award on the mantle is a reminder of how far we’ve come—and how much more there is to do.

Together, we’re weaving a legacy that lasts. Thank you to Walpole, WOLF, and everyone who shares our vision for a bright future in British luxury.

Here’s to what’s ahead.

The Araminta Campbell Team
