The CFDA has picked its date and its address: November 2, when the halls of the American Museum of Natural History give way to this year's nominees and honorees. It is one of New York's grander backdrops on loan for an evening built around the year's best in American design. The dinosaurs and the diamond hour make unlikely but memorable roommates. Mark the date — the room alone is worth the trip.

With reporting from WWD.
