Can you name the CFDA designer who said this? Hint: she is a major fashion icon.
The quote is just one of several gracing a poster that is part of the invite to the 2017 CFDA Fashion Awards in partnership with Swarovski.
Others include “Beige plus blonde equals gold. That’s fashion math” (Michael Kors); “Walk like you have three men walking behind you” (Oscar de la Renta), “It’s not just about chasing youth. It’s about dressing real women” (Tracy Reese), and “If it doesn’t scare you, you’re probably not dreaming big enough” (Tory Burch).
The creative concept highlights the voices of American designers in a way that is relatable. Look for wild postings with the creative throughout the city.
The printed and digital collateral is the result of the CFDA collaborating on the awards with The Creative Group, Condé Nast for the first time. They created the invites and are working on the nominee video packages. Also a first, Stefan Beckman will oversee the attendee experience from arrivals, décor, and stage design as the evening’s Design Director. KCD is producing the awards, and Nian Fish and Natane Boudreau of N+N Films are developing the evening’s honoree tribute films.
As for that quote, it came courtesy of CFDA Chairwoman Diane von Furstenberg!
