Sophia Bush in David Meister | 2012 CFDA Fashion Awards

Sophia Bush looked like a goddess in her citrus David Meister gown last night at the 2012 CFDA Fashion Awards in New York.

The 29-year-old “Partners” actress arrived with Mr. Meister in this custom silk halterneck gown, with a draping plunging neckline that tucked into a banded waist.

The front wasn’t the only dangerously fab element — check out that totally open back!

A high slit in the gliding skirt gave a great view of Sophia’s colorful metallic “Echasse” sandals by Christian Louboutin. These vibrant beauties featured bright blue at the toe strap and fuchsia at the ankle strap with a red platform and yellow heel.

Hairstylist Oscar Blandi styled Sophia’s honey-highlighted tresses in gorgeous cascading layered curls, and her make-up for the evening included smoke lined eyes, a glossy pink lip and shimmering cheeks.

She accessorized with gold jewelry from Lorraine Schwartz and a vintage Daniel Swarovski gold crystal and skin “Lana” clutch.

I love that Sophia didn’t play it safe with her shoes. She went bold with her dress and continued to have fun with the look all the way around. I can honestly say there’s not one single thing I would change about this. It was darn near perfect from head-to-toe.

I believe this was the first CFDA Fashion Awards event for Sophia, but I hope this is only the beginning of her fashion adventures outside of Fashion Week because I really want to see her at the MET Gala next year!
