This year's CFDA Awards were notable for many reasons. For one, this was the first year that bloggers were given a vote, although only a few were selected to have that privilege. However, most notable of the night was the special tribute to Alexander McQueen. Fashion idol Sarah Jessica Parker opened with a moving speech about the designer, after which models walked across the stage wearing the McQueen Fall 2010 collection, the last one he designed before his passing.
