 The Council of Fashion Designers of America is celebrating 50 years of cultivating American Fashion and putting American Fashion Designers’ work in the limelight with an exhibition debuting Friday, February 10, 2012 at the Museum of FIT.  ”Impact: Fifty Years of the CFDA” showcases collections from over 500 designers from 1962, when the CFDA was founded by Eleanor Lambert, to present day.  I know I am looking to book my ticket to pay the exhibit a look-see!
