CFDA Awards 2008: The winners are announced!
Last night the New York Public Library played host to the CFDA awards. America’s top fashion professionals came together to attend the annual ceremony and of course, celebrate fashion. This year the most coveted awards were handed to…
Francisco Costa – Womenswear Designer of the Year (Costa nabbed this award back in 2006)
Tom Ford - Menswear Designer of the Year
Tory Burch - Accessories Designer of the Year
Kate and Laura Mulleavy for Rodarte – Swarovski Award for Womenswear
Scott Sternberg for Band of Outsiders – Swarovski Award for Menswear
Philip Crangi - Swarovski Awards for Accessory Design
True to form the celebs also joined the party. Ashley Olsen championed the menswear look in Calvin Klein Resort 2009…
and Naomi Campbell paid homage to YSL wearing pieces from the AW08 collection,
while Victoria Beckham, did what she does best, wearing an attention grabbing dress that screamed “Look at me!”
(Out of respect I’ll reserve my comments on Andre Leon Talley’s outfit…)

She loves sushi and counts Matthew Williamson, John Galliano, Valentino and Hussein Chalayan as her favourite designers. Her biggest regret - never seeing Prince in concert!
