Blake Lively in Michael Kors at the CFDA Awards: mod, cute or budget?
Here are some photos from last night’s CFDA Awards, held in NYC. The CFDAs are like the Met Gala’s more studious, less glamorous cousin. People still show up in ball gowns, but mostly everything is low-key and about the actual awards. You can read about the awards here. First up: Blake Lively in Michael Kors. She was Kors’ date for the event too. I like Michael Kors as a person, and his generally minimalist, classic styles can either be “universal” or “boring.” I don’t have a problem with this beaded shift dress, but I’m not sure the headband works. I get that it’s supposed to look sort of “mod” but I don’t think it really works on Blake.
Here’s Coco Rocha in Christian Siriano… overkill for this event. She looks like Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady.
Keri Russell in Rosie Assoulin. I think the idea of this was interesting but the execution is blah. I like the idea of that blue silk being draped within the design, but it looks like someone just added it at the last minute.
Chris Kattan was there, in character as “Mango.” Seriously! Chris was invited by Alexander Wang, who apparently is a huge fan. Wang asked Mango/Chris to help him launch a project for T by Alexander Wang. Cute.
