Designers left their comfortable studios for the fashion designer event of the year yesterday - that is, the COUNCIL OF FASHION DESIGNER AWARDS a.k.a. the CFDA's. Held at the Alice Tully Hall at The Lincoln Center, this event sure was the talk of the New York town. A few celebrities also turned up to the ravishing event, honouring their favourite designers, not to mention Lady Gaga's significant attendance donning a vibrant aqua hairdo. P.S. I love Chris Benz' hair and Jenny Lyons' skirt... Repping the bright and beautiful! Feast your eyes on a few red carpet snaps below...
