»» Rising Talents Won Fashion Top Honors
Surprise at the Fashion annual gala, hosted Monday night by the Council of Fashion Designers of America.
Instead of celebrating the well known fashion designers, the American fashion industry has awarded top honors to young designers.
- The winners -
- Brazilian-born designer Francisco Costa of Calvin Klein received the womenswear designer of the year award.
- Menswear designer of the year was named Thom Browne, famed for his tailored suits with abbreviated proportions.
- Tom Binns, who gained notice for his iconoclastic jewelry, was named designer of the year for accessory.
A crowd of new designers also competed for the Swarovski’s Perry Ellis Awards, given for womenswear, menswear and accessories. More about the Fashion gala evening from The Washington Post
