We've just been served... with looks!
What else would you expect from celebrities, creators and designers walking the red carpet at the CFDA Fashion Awards, the prestigious sartorial ceremony that celebrates the best in American fashion each year.
This year, the star-studded evening event — widely regarded as "the Oscars of fashion" — is presented by the Council of Fashion Designers of America and takes place at the American Museum of Natural History on Monday, Nov. 3. Screen and style star Teyana Taylor is the host, turning the red carpet into her own personal runway in a custom Thom Browne look.
CFDA chairman Thom Browne and CEO and President Steven Kolb were joined by the biggest names in sports (hi Venus Williams and Angel Reese!), film (we see you Michelle Williams and Mandy Moore!), TV (hello Tamron Hall and Karen Pittman!), music (yes, A$AP Rocky and Rihanna) and beyond.
A mix of American designers, brands and organizations from across the American Fashion Industry, as well as international brands, were up for awards. Among them include Ralph Lauren, Tory Burch, Ashley Olsen and Mary Kate Olsen for The Row and Wes Gordon for Carolina Herrera.
