On Monday, Oct. 28, the Council of Fashion Designers of America held its annual awards ceremony at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. The council will present awards for American womenswear and menswear designers of the year, accessory designer of the year and emerging designer of the year, as well as honor Erykah Badu with the Fashion Icon Award, Michael Kors with the Positive Change Award for his activism, Annie Leibovitz with the Media Award and much more.

"This year’s nominees and honorees represent the gamut of American fashion creativity and excellence," said Steven Kolb, CEO of the CFDA.

A swath of A-list names turned out for the special night, including Ciara, Kylie Jenner, Blake Lively, Addison Rae, Paris Hilton, Lucy Liu and more.
