CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Fashion Show – Beauty

February 11, 2011 by J.T.

Thursday February 10, 2011 – Lincoln Center

Last night, in what could be considered the official kickoff to another Fashion Week in New York, Lincoln Center showcased a runway show for more than 60 Fashion Funders past and present for the American Express Cardmembers–Only CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund Fashion Show.

Renato Campora, lead stylist for Frédéric Fekkai, transformed the tresses from day to night for the CVFF catwalk. As the beauty sponsor of the show, Frédéric Fekkai and Renato Campora worked closely with Vogue’s Lawren Howell to create these fresh, modern and very wearable styles.

The runway mash-up featured over 60 looks from the likes of Jason Wu, Phillip Lim, Alexander Wang, Prabal Gurung, Joseph Altuzarra, Doo.Ri , Erin Fetherston, Helmut Lang, Isabel Toledo, Marchesa, Peter Som, Proenza Schouler, Rodarte, Derek Lam and many more! It’s the first-ever show of its kind and really the only way that regular consumers can access what is typically a trade event.
