Lenny Kravitz, Virgil Abloh, Law Roach, and more were honored at the “Oscars of Fashion,” also known as the 2022 CFDA Awards.
Fashion’s favorite color may be black, but the mood was light on Monday night at the CFDA Fashion Awards. Known in the industry as the “Oscars of Fashion,” the 2022 ceremony took place at New York City’s Casa Cipriani, where an illuminated ivory step-and-repeat was a fashion-forward pivot from the typical red carpet, providing a canvas upon which the evening’s looks could shine.
As previously reported by theGrio, the evening’s honorees included Lenny Kravitz, who was awarded the coveted Fashion Icon award. Also honored were acclaimed stylist and creative director Law Roach, who won the CFDA’s inaugural Stylist Award; veteran stylist Patti Wilson (the Media Award in honor of Eugenia Sheppard); United Nations Deputy Secretary-General Amina J. Mohammed (accepting the Environmental Sustainability Award on behalf of the U.N.); and a one-time Special Anniversary Award to designer Jeffrey Banks in honor of the CFDA’s 60th year. SKIMS founding partner Emma Grede was also honored with an Innovation Award alongside husband Jens Grede and business partner Kim Kardashian, and Virgil Abloh was posthumously honored with the CFDA’s Board of Trustees Award.
Along with the honorees in attendance on Monday night were a bevy of celebs, including Kerry Washington, Regina Hall, Trevor Noah, Janelle Monáe, Halle Bailey, and Jesse Williams, among others. Also present were the majority of this year’s Black design nominees—Aurora James (Brother Vellies), Christopher John Rogers, LaQuan Smith, Jerry Lorenzo (Fear of God), Brandon Blackwood and Lauren Harwell Godfrey — though unfortunately, none would take home prizes this year. Nevertheless, all came dressed to make fashion statements, as evidenced by our gallery of the evening’s looks.
