The annual fundraiser and award ceremony hosted by the Council of Fashion Designers of America will return on Nov. 10 in New York City, when new and established designers from Maisie Wilen to Demna Gvasalia will be up for awards for their work over the past year.

This year’s ceremony marks the return of an in-person version of the event: last year, due to the pandemic, the trade organisation announced the winners online.

While designer winners will be revealed at the ceremony, a number of the evening’s honorees were announced Wednesday and include Patagonia for environmental sustainability and Dapper Dan for lifetime achievement.
