The fashion set gathered last night to celebrate emerging talent in the design world at the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund awards. Models and celebrities turned up to toast the achievements of their visionary friends, and looked impeccably chic while doing so. Here, we spotlight some of our favorite looks from the evening.

Cindy Bruna

Upping the ante on a basic LBD, Cindy adds interest with lace paneling and aptly placed cutouts for an effect that's strikingly sexy. (Don't even get us started on her mile-long legs.)

Demi Moore

The eternally chic Demi proves that throwing a longline blazer over your cocktail dress for the after-party is a legitimate way to switch up your look (without doing a complete outfit change).

Zendaya

Zendaya's printed, midi-length Thakoon dress and Brother Vellies marabou sandals scream boudoir vibes in all the right ways. Her sleek topknot and shoulder-grazing earrings elegantly pull it all together.

Ophelie's figure-hugging, tuxedo-inspired jumpsuit is a sleek alternative to a cocktail dress. Accessorized with an of-the-moment fabric choker, the look oozes modern, fashion-girl sex appeal.
