2010 CFDA Winners...and Losers: We'd Rather Vote on the Scenery
Marc Jacobs wins Womenswear Designer of the Year from the Council of Fashion Designers of America. What a surprise. Michael Kors wins something as well (a Geoffrey Beene Lifetime Achievement Award). Shocking. And hold onto your hats...Michelle Obama fave Jason Wu won whatever, as did Alexander Wang, Rag & Bone, Ralph Lauren, and Burberry's Christopher Bailey. Sponsor-of-everything Vogue got their money's worth with an Eleanor Lambert award for Tonne Goodman. And the industry bestowed great honors - and even an SJP presentation - on Alexander McQueen, which no doubt elicited rolling (of the eye sort) from his grave.
However, what's much more fun than the predictable and self-congratulatory insider snoozefest is seeing what fashion's elite choose to wear on their Big Night Out!
THE WINNERS! Definitely SJP in a stunning McQueen gown, along with a surprisingly chic Jessica Biel in DVF. DVF herself (who also happens to be our fave fashion wackadoodle) looked quite the part of the jetsetting glam fashionista in a cheery floor-length print, while the charming Phillip Lim got kudos for a look we plan to steal for ourselves. And the gals to get down and party with are obviously Tracy Reese and Betsey Johnson. The Most Flawless Award goes to the impeccable Carolina Herrera for managing to look glamorous, comfortable, appropriate, and most importantly, age appropriate - all at the same time.
THE LOSERS:
