The 2015 Council of Fashion Designers of America Awards show took place on Monday at Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center. According to the official website, “the annual event is meant to recognize the outstanding contributions made to fashion by individuals from all areas of the industry and related arts, with awards being given for design excellence in womenswear, menswear, and accessories as well as extraordinary accomplishments in journalism, creative vision, and lifetime achievement.” That being said, I’m not the best at deliberating which nominees deserve to win in their categories. However, I do believe that the winners are well-deserving. See the link for the 2015 winners and continue below for the event’s red carpet arrivals. Some tasteful, some not…quite.
