The CFDA!

     The Council of Fashion Designers of America, Inc. (CFDA) is a no-profit trade association that consists of over 400 of the top American womenswear, menswear, jewelry and accessory designers.  Every year they host a fashion show for new and upcoming designers to show off their collections.  The ten finalists all gathered in West Hollywood Thursday afternoon for the annual fashion show at the Chateau Marmont to show off their designs.  Although many designers felt like their stomachs housed multiple fluttering butterflies, they kept their cool while showing their collections to an audience that included Victoria Beckham, Baz Luhrmann, Katy Perry and Jennifer Aniston. 

     The evening then traveled on to a private dinner that was hosted by the Anna Wintour and Victoria Beckham.  As the young, nervous designers mingled with the crowd they all got positive reassurance from Ms. Wintour when she stated that there are no losers, only winners.  The upcoming awards ceremony will take place in New York next month and until then we will just have to wait to see who the true winner will be. 

     Let's see who wore what!

Good Luck!

Ciao,
