Chubb Insurance has launched into the glittering world of fashion with a specialist policy for haute-couture fashion houses.

The policy, MasterCouture, is aimed at the likes of Armani, Versace and Dolce & Gabbana who put on glamorous shows in venues such as Paris, New York, London and Milan.

It will provide cover for event cancellation, event liability, sound equipment, props and extra PR in the event of cancellation or death. Chubb said the total sum insured for some shows can reach £2m -£3m.

European Chubb's Judith Isherwood said: "Bearing in mind the high sums at stake, it makes sense for fashion houses to take out more comprehensive cover."

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
