🙂
Thank you for sharing,

Katie Cassidy….
**overtaken by drunken stupor**
I like the Kirsten Dunst’s Suite, it’s modern and very versatile, Jessica Alba cant’s be worst with that dress so messy and looks like a blanket tangled in her body.
Loved the variety of styles you chose for this post. Thanks for posting!
The dress on Katie Cassidy is the cutest ever!
How does Gaga walks on those heels???
hehe. i guess it’s like walking stilted 😀
my question indeed!
some of those gowns and outfits are phenomenal. other are ok…in my book anyway. thanks for sharing. love it!
Thanks.

Very understated dresses this year…. Chanel Iman looks breathtaking!
Most of the outfits were okay some of them though were lousy. Decent blog come visit http://thor27.wordpress.com
I liked the first, third, and fourth outfits. I think they were the most wearable for me 🙂
For a formal evening awards show (which is what the CFDA awards are), many of those outfits are dreadful choices (regardless of whether they would look fine in other settings). The ones that got it right for the occasion (though I’m not necessarily a fan of the overall look in a few of these cases): Lucy Liu, Alessandra Ambrosio, Karolina Kurkova, Miranda Kerr, Lady Gaga, Kirsten Dunst, Chanel Iman, Liya Kebede.
Kurkova and Kerr are probably my favourites overall, though both would do better with closed-toe shoes for this event.
Amber Heard, Naomi Watts, Katie Cassidy, and Liv Tyler look great, but look like they’re dressed for a cocktail party instead of an awards show.
I couldn’t agree more. Miranda and Chanel are my favourites overall. But what surprises me is that eg. Ashley Greene was a date of Michael Kors himself and he dressed her so he chosed her outfit for the event and she still doesn’t get it right for this particular event.
(and yes Katie’s dress is probably the cutest there and I would definitely wear it but for a bbq party or something like that 😉 )
I didn’t know that about Ashley Greene. I wonder if he really thought that look was appropriate for the event, or whether he was just thinking about what would get some column inches?
Clothes are a wonderful way to express personality, and identity. That’s what I love about them. But they should also represent how your personality interacts with the event, and with other people. Picking an outfit that has nothing to do with the event is the sartorial equivalent of turning up and then standing in a corner refusing to talk to anyone all evening long! 😉
I forgot to congratulate you on getting Freshly Pressed in my earlier post. Consider yourself congratulated, and keep blogging! I’ll try to remember to pop by occasionally; I like what you’re doing here. 🙂
My faves: Kerry Washington, Katie Cassidy, Liv Tyler, and Karolina Kurkova (wish I could have a better shot of her shoes!)
Cassidy is just too skinny, I think. But Lady Gaga looks great.
But you know, my friend also said “Fashion is the healthiest motivation for losing weight.”
I guess, that’s wrong.

I just love the what Amber Heard and Chanel Iman are wearing – absolutely beautiful. I don’t think I have ever seen one piece of clothing Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen have worn that I love…they always look like little girls playing dress-up, the LV shoes, however are fabulous!
I’m not sure about these outfits, I think that they are not totally appropriated for the CFDA awards. But I also think that there are a few cute outfits as the one that Katie Cassidy wears or Kerry Washington, great dresses!
xx p&c
OMG..If I was just 25 years younger……….I’d slip into one of those…

i love lady gaga’s style 🙂 🙂 😉 ahahhaa ❤
So cool~~~~~
naomi watts looks hot
I like the diversity of styles rather than the standard gown one would see on the red carpet of the Oscars. Some attire definarely stood out compared to others, but I still embrace simplicity.
There are some hits and misses on that. I love GAGA but just can’t be doing with the frock. Jess Alba is looking mighty good can I say?
wow,these 2011 new style of apparel are amazing beautiful and fashionable.It create a very colorful and fresher summertime for us.Super good artwork.

Great looking dresses. I like the unique styles, very fashionable. Thank you for sharing,
Nice outfits. I wonder how they came up with this color of hair for the Chloe Sevigny outfit?
I love the Chloe’s outfit! I thought she and Linda Fargo were the best dressed – I’m no big fan of the CFDA’s, but at least, and tmw says, there are some truly good clothes – not just well-styled.
As Lady Gaga, I’m totally in the same camp – and why honor fashion icons anyway when there are many more deserving people in fashion? I wrote a piece on this that came out today:

I too love the Chloe’s Outfit! So Fab!!

Shenae Grimes and Jessica Alba both look amazing! Great post!
I don’t know what these designers are thinking. (Yikes!) Of course, they use these celebrities to try every piece of “work” that they do.
Howdy blogger, thank you for providing this article.. I found it first-class.

Loveee it all. Except Lady Gaga’s whole appearance. She always has to be the center of all fashion

Hmmm I’m no fashion guru but there was quite a mix of dresses from casual to dressy to risky. To me some of them were kind of weird and I’m not just talking about Lady Gaga.
i’m contemplating about commencing my very own blog. i’m questioning if it really is tough to operate your very own blog. I undoubtedly enjoy commenting. many thanks Bloggers Flammable storage
