Held at the Hammerstein Ballroom in Manhattan, the prestigious event, which has been running since 1981, celebrates the very best of the industry and their contributions, from design to personal style.

Those recognised at this year’s event included the late Franca Sozzani, editor-in-chief of Vogue Italia, who was honoured with the Fashion Icon Award. Guests listened to an emotional speech by Anna Wintour before she presented the award to Franca’s son, Francessco Carrozzini.
