In addition to an inaugural Honorary Award that was presented to Saint Laurent creative director and designer Anthony Vaccarello, other honorees of the evening included Rachel Scott of Diotima, Dani Griffiths of Clyde, and Rebecca Zeijdel-Paz of Beck.

A variety of celebrities attended this award ceremony in some of the most dazzling and exquisite ensembles. Kerry Washington and Kimora Lee Simmons glistened in gold, while Taraji P. Henson served leather realness in a red Simkhai dress.

Celebrity stylist Law Roach looked innovative and fashion-forward in a Maison Margiela blazer and tulle skirt look, while Julia Fox came with the theatrics in a rose Marni dress, with costume make-up.

Our Fashion Bomb CEO, Claire Sulmers was also on the scene in a black Alaia snakeskin halter dress. She paired her ensemble with a $3,490 Crystal La Medusa mini bag, and black open-toe platform heels. Her hair was pinned in a beautiful updo, and her make-up was glamorous.
