Jennifer Lopez Will Receive The CFDA Fashion Icon Award
She joins past award recipients Rihanna, Beyonce, Pharrell, and Naomi Campbell
Few could argue that Jennifer Lopez has a strong sense of style. She’s why so many wanted to wear a Juicy Couture tracksuit back in the Noughties and who could forget her iconic green tropical print Versace dress from the 2000 MTV VMAs? The CFDA certainly hasn’t and will honour Lopez for her fashionable contributions, giving her the CFDA Fashion Icon Award at this year’s ceremony.
“Jennifer Lopez’s style is bold, uninhibited, and always memorable,” Steven Kolb, president and CEO of the CFDA says. “Designers, including many of our CFDA Members, love to dress her for both stage and private moments.” ACFDA chairwoman Diane von Furstenberg added in a statement, “Jennifer Lopez uses clothes as a way to express confidence and power. Both designers and fans look forward to her fashion statements. ”
Past CFDA Fashion Icon Award recipients include Naomi Campbell, Rihanna, Pharrell, Beyonce, and the late Franca Sozzani. The CFDA Awards will take place at the Brooklyn Museum on 3 June.
2019 has been off to a great start for JLo, who kicked off the year with a mesmerising 10-minute Motown tribute at the 2019 Grammy Awards ceremony. She also wore this voluminous neon pink Giambattista Valli gown at the premiere of her movie Second Act.
