Cornelia Guest was shocked at receiving the Rising Star Award from Fashion Group International for her line of cruelty-free handbags. “Who would have ever thought?” she said as she accepted the honor and bounced back to her seat alongside Estée Lauder group president John Demsey and Mark Badgley and James Mischka. The luncheon at Cipriani 42nd Street feted up-and-coming designers of women’s wear and menswear, accessories and interiors, including Tia Cibani, Honor’s Giovanna Randall and Andy Hilfiger as well as couture creator Ralph Rucci. Rucci reminded the designers, award winners included, “There’s no such thing as you have arrived. You have to keep moving forward.”
