The CFDA announced that Lopez, 49, is set to receive the prestigious Fashion Icon Award at the 2019 CFDA Fashion Awards in N.Y.C. later this year.
From her bold red carpet fashion choices (including her legendary Versace gown at the 2000 Grammys!) to her show-stopping onstage looks, Lopez has always been willing to push boundaries and take chances with her wardrobe. In addition to her red carpet domination, the star has also graced the cover of nearly every major fashion magazine worldwide, fromVoguetoHarper’s BAZAAR, throughout her career – includingthe December 2018 issue ofInStyle,which clearly proved that “I’ve taken care of myself, and now it shows,” as she told the magazine.
