The Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) Awards are the Oscars of the fashion world. And last night (June 1) the fashion Oscars got a taste of realness from the Kardashian-West family.
Kim Kardashian was there to present the Media Award in Honor of Eugenia Sheppard to Instagram. At some point in the evening, Kardashian tweeted, her dress caught on fire. Pharrell Williams, who was there to receive the Fashion Icon Award, and his wife Helen Lasichanh apparently put it out.
