2015 CFDA Award Nominees

Unveiled earlier upon the iconic Rockefeller Center was this year’s list of nominees for the CFDA awards. The annual awards are given to the best of the best in American fashion, from menswear, womenswear and accessories. Among the usual suspects (Alexander Wang, Proenza Schouler, The Row…) are some first time nominees, and interestingly enough, Dao-Yi Chow and Maxwell Osborne’s Public School has nabbed two nominations — in both menswear and womenswear, having only debuted its womenswear line for Fall 2014. Check out the menswear nominees below, and let us know who you think will take the high honors.
