Fashion Week Is All Fugged Up
We were such innocents a mere eight days ago. Times were much simpler then; we had hope in our hearts and an unfailing optimism that our job covering celebrities in Fashion Week’s front rows would be like shooting fish in a barrel, minus the ricochet.
Even though not as many famous faces showed up as we’d have liked, we managed to come out the other end a very happy, sated pair. After all, we love clothes, Champagne, and sandwiches, and we got a lot of all three this week. Here are some of the highlights and lowlights of our second stint covering the celebrity turnout at Bryant Park and, yes, of the 37 shows we saw, we did like a lot of the clothes.

Hair stylists have really laid it on thick this season, cutting bangs into heavy blocks. The soft, side-sweeping style has been edged out at Miss Sixty with Irina Lazareanu’s straight, eye-length fringe. The look at Vera Wang was slightly more severe as bangs were chopped bluntly. Ruffian’s bulky bangs were slightly shorter, though no less heavy, and bleached platinum circa 1987 Madonna. When you’re transitioning from a light spring look, this is just the do to keep you chic and warm for fall.
