It's kind of boring that Ralph Lauren won the popular vote. Something more interesting couldn't have won?
1I know. Ralph Lauren isn't really relevant anymore. Yawwwwn.
I'm so glad Rodarte one. Looking at the two designers, you would never guess that they were the designers of Rodarte!
2Oh sorry, I meant won.
3Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez are so cute!
4Love Rodarte, Proenza Schouler, Marc Jacobs and Alexander Wang; glad they took home awards, very well deserved. Same goes for Anna Sui.
