The Emmy awards the other night had me thinking about who I would reward, if I could, when it comes to fashion. The list below are designers who I think consistently hit the mark in terms of design and originality. I’ve included all price points because I think you can be fashionable with any budget. So without further ado… the Oscar goes to….
