Mandy Moore Loved Her Custom-Made CFDA Dress

Mandy Moore felt confident in her custom-made CFDA dress.

The A Walk To Remember star wore a cream Lela Rose gown to the CFDA Fashion Awards in New York on Monday and says it was a privilege to put it on.

"I was so taken by the short version of this dress on the runway, and was so excited that they custom-made me a long version for the event. I love the juxtaposition of the soft white draping and the hard edge of the metal-and pearl-encrusted shoulders! I'm all about a strong shoulder right now - it feels confident," Mandy, 28, told People.

Designer Lela approached Mandy about a collaboration in April, and the design was inspired by one of Lela's Spring 2012 looks. Lela, whose clients include Jessica Simpson and Selma Blair, commented, "Dressing Mandy is always a fun experience. Not only is she stunning but such a genuine and lovely person. The custom gown I made for her to wear, with its clean lines and bold embellishments, will so wonderfully complement both her inner and outer beauty."

SNL’s Stefon to Appear at the CFDA Awards?

Calling all organizers of the CFDA Fashion Awards! Saturday Night Live's Bill Hader has given the greenlight to attend the ceremony as his Ed Hardy-loving Weekend Update City Correspondent character, Stefon.

When asked about whether or not he would be up for bringing Stefon to a real-life event like the CFDA Awards, he said yes! "I would like that. That would be fun. We did something for an autism benefit at the Plaza Hotel, so we've done it outside the show before, and it was a lot of fun. So yeah, I would totally do that [if asked]."

Considering that SNL's head writer and cast member Seth Meyers is hosting this year's CFDA event, the idea may not be as far-fetched as one would think...

The CFDA Fashion Awards will take place on Monday, June 4th at Lincoln Center's Alice Tully Hall.
