Emeli Sande’s track, Next To Me scored two wins being named Best Song Musically and Lyrically as well as the PRS Award for Most Performed Work. Although the Scottish songstress wasn’t the only act to head home with a pair of Ivor Novello Awards, Plan B, Coldplay and Alt J were also double winners.

Noel Gallagher bagged the Outstanding Song Collection award while the prestigious Songwriter Of The Year trophy landed in Calvin Harris’ hands. Gavin Rossdale and The Maccabees were also honoured on the Ivor Novello Awards roll call.

While music was a firm fixture at the event, Lily Cooper couldn’t help but do her bit for fashion arriving in a statement brown dress complete with cape detailing. She added black heels and a clutch for a sophisticated finish.
