A men's fashion and lifestyle magazine is celebrating after scooping the top prize in an important industry contest.
The Maggies were launched by iSUBSCRiBE to recognise excellence in the industry and GQ magazine was handed the overall gong for best cover in the 2010 awards.
The publication's September 2009 issue featured the beautiful Sienna Miller on the front, dressed in a white shirt and stockings.
It won ahead of tough competition from the likes of the Beano, New Scientist and Metal Hammer - all of which scooped their own respective awards for the youth, specialist and entertainment categories.
GQ also won the fashion section of the contest for the same cover, while snowboarding publication Whitelines took the sport category and FHM scooped the lifestyle gong.
Editor of GQ magazine Dylan Jones explained that he was "thrilled" at the result.
"I like to think that GQ puts more effort into its covers than any of its competitors, and it's fabulous that we have been recognised in this way," he said.
Mr Jones went on to praise creative director Paul Solomons for his work on the winning issue, noting that the "world class" photographer and subject also helped.
GQ recently published exclusive photos of Cristiano Ronaldo, Cesc Fabregas, Didier Drogba and Fabio Capello - four men gunning for World Cup glory.
