A look at the top models who impressed us at the CFDA awards in New York. 

The glamorous city of New York played host to one of the biggest fashion nights recently.

Just like last year, the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) awards this year saw stunning models from across the country in daring and trendy outfits.

Surprisingly we didn't spot any fussy ball gowns this time, and we can't be happier about that.

Presenting some of the best dressed model styles from the event that was staged at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York.
