Monday 2nd of June in New York was a night that
failed to disappoint- The CFDA Awards. These awards are the ones that spotlight
the fashion industry; and this year they were hosted by the iconic John Waters
in New York.
To be invited to the ceremony is an honour in itself, yet of
course there were winners. After the nominations were submitted by the Fashion
Guild (a group of about 1,500, consisting of CFDA members, fashion editors,
stylists, retailers, etc.) and everyone was
inclined to vote. Here are the
winners!

One outfit which certainly raised a few eyebrows was Rihanna’s.
She wore a completely sheer floor-length
dress that exposed quite a lot of skin; however she did wear underwear despite
her nude chest.
She is wearing a custom made Adam Selman fishnet dress,
headscarf and gloves that are embellished with over 20,000 Swarovski crystals. The
look is accessorised with a Paul
Morelli ring and earrings and a Jacob & co
ring.
Although bold this is not a new look for Rhianna. Remember what
she wore at Paris
Fashion week 2014?
Or in Stockholm in the summer of 2013?
Whether you adore the look or despise it, this is seriously
a reflection of old Hollywood
glamour and leaves nothing to the imagination.
What do you think of the look? Is the nudity too much? Comment
