In June 2017, a slew of A-list celebrities and prominent names in the fashion industry gathered at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City.
Nicole Kidman was a vision of refined elegance, while Gigi Hadid exuded quiet sophistication. Previous CFDA winners Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen also brought their signature minimalist style in monochromatic ensembles from The Row.
Here are some of the most memorable looks from this year’s CFDA Fashion Awards.

The 40-year-old actress finished her look with the popular “Harmony” sandals from Giuseppe Zanotti. This blush velvet version features high heels, leather soles, and rear zip closures.
Diane Kruger likely understands that blush or skin-colored shoes, such as her nude Giuseppe Zanotti ‘Harmony’ sandals, create the illusion of longer legs and a taller frame because they blend seamlessly with the skin tone. This visual trick works by extending the line of the leg uninterrupted, particularly when paired with a high slit or floor-length gown like her royal blue velvet dress.
