The Council of Fashion Designers of America, i.e. CFDA, has got itself some brand spanking new members (26 to be exact) as the likes of Rachel Zoe, Joseph Altuzarra, Tabitha Simmons, Pamela Love and Tadashi Shoji have all gained membership status.

Of course, Diane Von Furstenberg is still the President – she ain’t going anywhere! Not for another two years at least!

“Diane has done an excellent job as CFDA president,” Steven Kolb, a spokesperson for the CFDA told WWD.  “The time and resources she gives and the vision she has created is a huge benefit for our organization and industry.”

Yup – you can say that again! Remember how smoothly Diane handled that fashion week scheduling nightmare? Anyone think we should consider DVF for actual President? Just a thought…
