CFDA Awards is just like Oscar for fashion fields in America. Every year, The Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) select a nominee and then announce who are the best in their fields. Nominations for each award category are submitted by the CFDA Fashion Awards Selection Committee, made up of the 400+ members of the CFDA, along with top fashion retailers, journalists, and stylists. The nominees, as well as recipients of the honorary awards are ratified by the CFDA Board of Directors.
This year, The 2013 CFDA Fashion Awards took place on Monday, June 3 at Alice Tully Hall, Lincoln Center. And this are the winner on each category.
