Attracting some of the most high profile names in the industry, models, designers and TV personalities gathered at the CFDA Fashion Awards on Monday to show off their style credentials as they arrived at the Brooklyn Museum in NY.

"I'm about as fashionable as Kanye is Black".

Presented with the award by actress Busy Philipps, Kardashian joked about the irony of winning an fashion award, seemingly acknowledging the numerous headlines she has made for being naked or showing skin.

She herself then won an award for positive change in the industry, sponsored by Swarovski, which had bedazzled not only a faux Calder in the museum's atrium, but also pairs of cherries and tangerines in the otherwise edible on-table fruit bowls.

Some breast cancer patients may not need chemotherapy, depending on their genes
A patient's immune system will already be attacking the tumour, it's just losing the fight between white blood cells and cancer. Melinda Bachini, a former paramedic who lives in Billings, Montana, believes the treatment saved her life.

Kardashian, meanwhile, was in attendance at the award ceremony where she accepted the first CFDA Influencer Award.

The KKW Beauty creator received the Influencer Award that evening.

The creator and star of HBO's Insecure hosted the event and, as always, kept things all the way real, taking a few verbal swings at Kanye West despite knowing that West's wife Kim Kardashian was in attendance.

This year's Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Awards included top honours for the likes of supermodel Naomi Campbell, designer Diane von Furstenberg and reality star Kim Kardashian West. "Every time she wears, posts or talks about a fashion brand, there is an immediate and significant increase in both awareness and sales".
