The second annual GQ Global Creativity Awards featured a bevy of high-profile stars in attendance Thursday night in New York City. The awards ceremony honored artistic visionaries and pioneers whose work and contributions are pushing the culture forward.

For the event, a number of stars fashioned designer looks that complemented each individual’s respective style and fashion sensibility. An array of fabrics, fashion labels and textual designs were on full display on the red carpet — or, in this event’s case, purple carpet. Major designers and fashion labels featured included Marni, Dior, and Retrofête.
