Francisco Costa Takes the Big One



Without a doubt, women's wear rules the fashion industry. So obviously it is the highest honor to be named the women's wear designer of the year, which was awarded to Francisco Costa of Calvin Klein. I use to work as a sales rep for Calvin Klein and ever since then I've been very fond of the cleanness and classic silhouettes of CK. Calvin Klein has always had a strong celebrity following and Eva Mendes was over joyed to announce Costa as the winner of this years biggest award. Costa told FashionWeekDaily.com:

"Every designer wants to be affiliated with the CFDA. I think the industry benefits from the CFDA because the CFDA backs up the industry. It’s a community effort. It’s not about me benefiting from it; it’s the CFDA recognizing their members…who the people are, out there. I don’t think it’s a personal thing."

It's nice to see a fashion house that is so all American continue to strive and create great things, and employ great talent to ensure it's longevity. Bravo to Costa and Calvin, and Liv Lux wishes you all the best in the future!
