Can We Get a Drumroll Please?

Last night, a hush fell over the fashion world. Thankfully, it was only for a moment as winners were announced at the 29th annual Council of Fashion Designers of America Awards. The who's who of style gathered in New York's Lincoln Center to celebrate the achievements of their peers and do what they do best: look fabulous. Winners included Marc Jacobs for Womenswear Designer of the Year and David Neville and Marcus Wainwright of Rag & Bone for Menswear Designer(s) of the Year. Ralph Lauren snagged the L'Oréal Popular Vote while designer Michael Kors was honored with a lifetime achievement award and Kim Hastreiter, editor and publisher of Paper magazine, received recognition for her excellence in fashion journalism. The program also included a heartfelt tribute to the late Alexander McQueen.

Supermodel Iman, pictured above in a form-fitting mermaid gown, was given the honor of Fashion Icon by the CDFA during last night's ceremony.
