Jennifer Lopez's title as style queen is getting more official. Although we have hailed the 49-year-old superstar as a modish icon for quite some time now, the fashion community is officially bestowing the status upon her on Monday, June 3. JLo is slated to be honored with the prestigious Fashion Icon Award at the 2019 Council of Fashion Designers of America Awards in New York City. From her internet-breaking Versace dress to a more recent hot pink princess extravaganza by Giambattista Valli, the Bronx beauty certainly deserves the accolade. According to the organization, the mom-of-two won the title for her “longstanding and global impact on fashion."
