CFDA Awards Page 1
10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: June 5-11
This was the week of the CFDA Awards — so much fashion, people! There was also a fair amount of fashion at the German state dinner (Michelle Obama, duh). Marc Jacobs‘s ad campaigns were on our mind, as were Kanye West‘s dead model video and Karl Lagerfeld‘s glassware. And, as usual, Kate/Princess Catherine/Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge/whateverhernameis looked stunning.
PHOTOS: Fashion Royalty Rocks The CFDA Awards Red Carpet
You’ve seen the winners and you’ve seen Lady Gaga’s studded thong, which means the only thing left for you to see is the insane amount of Fashion that was paraded down the CFDA Awards red carpet last night.
And The 2011 CFDA Winners Are…
The Council of Fashion Designers of America celebrated their own last night in a star-studded show hosted (somewhat sporadically) by Anderson Cooper and held at New York City’s Lincoln Center. And while we’ve got what Lady Gaga (and what everyone else) wore coming up, let’s start with who took home the honors.
Why Are So Few CFDA Award Nominees Women?
Tonight’s Council of Fashion Designers of America Awards will be the glitziest event in fashion for a long time coming, but the glamour of the red carpet doesn’t mask a pretty ugly issue: only two of this year’s 19 nominated brands are run by women.
Anderson Cooper To Host 2011 CFDA Awards
Anderson Cooper — that serious journalist guy who barely has time for fashion shows between shimmying into annoyingly small t-shirts and pulling children out of harm’s way — has been asked to face a different kind of battlefield for his most recent assignment: hosting the 2011 Council of Fashion Designers of America awards.
Why Are So Many Of The CFDA Award Nominees So Young?
The nominees for the Council of Fashion Designers of America‘s 2011 awards ceremony are set, and the list is more or less a roster of the coolest kids working in the industry. And when we say kids, we mean kids. Because for the most part, this year’s nominees are pretty young. Also: Lady Gaga was nominated!
PHOTOS: Anna Wintour’s State Dinner Outfit Was A Repeat
Our first thought when we saw Anna Wintour‘s ensemble for Wednesday night’s State Dinner: “We love Chanel, but isn’t she a bit underdressed?” The editor in chief of Vogue looked good, there’s no doubt there, but in a sea of designer floor-length gowns, the daytime dress and jacket combo looked, well, a little out of place. And on top of that, it turns out she wore the same outfit on a red carpet just over a month ago.
Asian-Americans Make Their Mark In The Fashion World
Wang, Wu, Lam, Lim. We’ve been coveting their goods for quite some time now. And while their aesthetics are quite variable, they all have something in common: their Asian heritage.
Iman Gifts Her CFDA Award To The Standard Hotel
It seems that the 18th floor of the Standard Hotel is getting even more fashion forward. Iman, who recently received the Fashion Icon CFDA award has given her trophy to the hotel, where it currently sits behind the bar…
The Week In Review: June 7 to June 11
They say you can’t know where you’re going until you realize where you’ve been. With that in mind, we’re taking a glance back. The past week has been a roller coaster of fashion news and events — and luckily, we were there to catch the good, the bad and the ugly.
Kim Hastreiter Would Like To Thank Independent Thinkers
If there was one reason we wished we could have been at the CFDA’s–besides maybe witnessing Marc Jacobs prance up to the podium to Justin Bieber’s “Baby,” it was to hear Paper editor Kim Hastreiter accept her Eugenia Sheppard Award. We’ve said it before, she’s a favorite of ours (and many for that matter) described by Guy Trebay as, “the coolest person in New York.”
PHOTOS: From The Inside Of The CFDA Awards
We’ve showed you how everyone dressed and told you who the winners were. All that’s left to do is give you the final insider tidbit — photos from the Journal.
And the CFDA Goes To…Annual Awards Honor In Fashion
Amidst all the models, Swarovski crystals and Paltrow‘s very high ponytail, it’s easy forget that the CFDA awards are actually a competition. You know, one that involves creative kudos just slightly more legitimate than “best dressed.” So not to seem remiss in our duties as your source of sartorial news (wouldn’t want you to be uninformed around the water cooler) it’s our great pleasure to inform you that this year’s circle o’winners was about as predictable as each is genius.
Model Mayhem: Our Favorite Beauties At The CFDA Awards
The red carpet at the CFDA Awards is a who’s who of the fashion world. If you’re not there, you’re not in it. Case in point, the models. As per usual, this year the red carpet was full of our favorite models — girls who’ve walked the carpet many times before, and fresh faces whose careers are just about to take off.
The Week in Review: May 31 to June 4
They say you can’t know where you’re going until you realize where you’ve been. With that in mind, we’re taking a glance back. The past week has been a roller coaster of fashion news and events — and luckily, we were there to catch the good (like Daisy’s dirty dancing), the bad, and the ugly.
CFDA Awards: McQueen Honored, Wang Nominated
To be inducted into the Council of Fashion Designers of America is like winning an Oscar. And just like the nominations for the Academy Awards, the fashion community waits breathlessly to discover who is to be honored and, more importantly, who is to be recognized as the latest and greatest in fashion.
