Oprah, The Olsens & More Step Out For CFDA Fashion Awards

Last night in NYC, it was the Oscars of fashion, where Oprah Winfrey lead an unbelievable style parade down the red carpet.

“I’m wearing Ralph for Ralph by Ralph,” Oprah said of her outfit.

Pale pink perfection! Lady “O” arrived to awaiting photogs who were eager to get a shot of her exquisite, floor length Ralph Lauren gown at last night’s CFDA Awards.

“Ralph called me personally and he asked me to come,” Oprah explained. “I said ‘Ralph, I don't know I'm suppose to be in Africa,’ so only for Ralph would I do this!

Mary-Kate Olsen opted for classic white while twin sister Ashley held her own in a sophisticated black gown, both in their own designs.

A dapper Diddy dusted off his vintage Tom Ford tux and walked the carpet solo as did all out sexy Eva Mendes in bright pink Calvin Klein and stunning at 53, Ellen Barkin in skintight sequins.

A white hot Petra Nemcova channeled Marilyn Monroe in the night’s red carpet trend – halters.

Taking the purple plunge, Uma Thurman and Debra Messing – arriving with designer Michael Kors and out celebrating the success of “The Starter Wife.”

“I know USA has the option to turn it into a series,” Messing said. “So we'll take it one step at a time and we'll see!”

Heidi Klum sparkled in this chocolate Michael Kors still glowing after renewing her vows with husband of two years, Seal.

“It’s true,” Heidi said of their renewal. “I don’t know who always talks about [these] things.”

Ralph Lauren wins Fashion Award, Oprah’s love

The Council of Fashion Designers of America handed out their annual awards last weekend, in a ceremony dubbed the “Oscars of the fashion world.” Bedford’s Ralph Lauren won the first-ever American Fashion Legend Award, which sounds awfully impressive.Even more impressive: Oprah Winfrey presented it to him.


Even more impressive, she said this: “He represents an icon in the definition of the word, having symbolized what is possible, what is meaningful – sometimes fashion can be kind of frivolous…When you hear `It’s so Ralph Lauren,’ it’s very understood. The name evokes an image … a lifestyle we all wish we could live…He’s admired, imitated but never equaled.”


Not bad, for a kid from The Bronx, born with the name Ralph Lifshitz.
