A little off-topic, but not really.  Former PR judge Zac Posen is a judge on the finale of Worst Cooks of America Celebrity Edition, tying together fashion, food, and Figure Skating since Tonya Harding is one of the finalists.

In case you don't know (the easiest way to keep up on fashion for me is to skim WWD each  morning and if something interests me, a collection or stuff like Tom Ford changing NYFW) --

 

last night was the annual CFDA Awards.  A low-key event attended by designers, models, the fashion press, style icons.   They're prestigious, insular and people dress for the designers, one another and for themselves, not for us.

 

(Saw inside photos of Anna Wintour with her sunglasses on!!!)

 

I knew they were coming because I'd read Jennifer Lopez was getting this year's Style Icon award and that's all I knew.

 

They were last night and...

 

...our Brandon won CFDA Best Womenswear Designer!

 

He was so surprised, sweet and humble and surprised by all accounts and said he wouldn't have hit the bar so much if he knew LOL.

 

Didn't see Karlie but Christian was there looking fierce and having dressed some biggies and Elaine looked terrific.  Didn't see photos of the others but they may be out there.
