Nadja Swarovski and Diane von Furstenberg
The Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) announced the nominations for the 2010 CFDA Fashion Awards at an exclusive event hosted by Nadja Swarovski and Diane von Furstenberg at the designer’s studio in the Meatpacking District earlier this evening. The 2010 CFDA Fashion Awards winners will be announced at the annual gala, generously underwritten by Swarovski, on June 7th at Alice Tully Hall at Lincoln Center.
On a side note, I was surprised to be one of the selected fashion bloggers to submit nominations for the 2010 CFDA Fashion Awards. It’s truly an honor. Thank you CFDA!
