Last night's CFDA awards were, as expected, a gorgeous event. Like the Met Gala, this is fashion's night to really dress up, and supermodels and celebs showed up in some of our favorite outfits of the year. Anderson Cooper hosted the annual show, and the big winners this year were Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCullough of Proenza Schouler for womenswear designers of the year. Other favorite names included a win for Alexander Wang in accessories, and Lady Gaga for fashion icon of the year. Trends from the night included a sea of red gowns, thanks to Karlie Kloss, Doutzen Kroes, and Alessandra Ambrosio, suiting by Kirsten Dunst and Leelee Sobieski, and shine thanks to Naomi Watts, Karolina Kurkova, and Mary-Kate Olsen. See a list of the nominees and winners below, but don't miss our slideshow, which has all the most fashionable highlights from one of the most fashionable nights of the year.
