Lady Gaga to receive Stylemaker Award
Pop star Lady Gaga, whose fashion sense has garnered as much attention as her hit songs (cue "Poker Face" for the umpteenth time, please), will receive the Stylemaker Award from designer Marc Jacobs at the 13th annual Accessories Council Excellence Awards. The event, which takes place Monday at Cipriani 42nd Street in New York, also pays tribute to Diane von Furstenberg, Zappos.com, Burberry and, um, Barbie, who will receive the Fashion Icon award for, one supposes, providing such a realistic image of the feminine form to young girls for decades.
Other presenters at the event include Calvin Klein, Betsey Johnson, Molly Sims and "Gossip Girl" designer Eric Daman. A full list of honorees is after the break, but ... Barbie? Really?
