DKNY edged out top-nominated contenders Bergdorf Goodman and Gucci in the categories for Best Twitter, Best Mobile App, Best Blog and Top Innovator. Levi’s won Best Facebook Page, Bluefly was recognized for Best Online Video, Armani Jeans’s “The Room” was awarded Best Website, and Tumblr took home honors for Next Big Thing in Tech (we couldn’t agree more).
Like the Mashable Awards, winners were determined entirely by popular vote, following an open nomination round. DKNY’s “PR Girl” rallied her Twitter followers for votes in the final days, securing the brand’s place on top.
The awards are designed to recognize innovation in an industry that, before the latter half of 2010, was sincerely behind other industries in its adaptation of socia l media, live streaming, mobile and 3D (or, in some cases, “4D”) technology.
A livestream of the awards ceremony, co-hosted by Style Coalition and TheFind, is embedded above. You can also check out the full list of nominees and winners (in bold) below.
