The shows, the clothes, the parties, the models, the madness - it’s Fashion Week in New York and over the weekend I hit the ground running…or at least walking at a really brisk pace with a determined look on my face. Here’s how it went down so far…On Friday I headed to the tents to catch Erin Fetherston’s show. I loved Erin’s cute floral print dresses paired with tights, but her front row packed with it-girls was what really caught my eye. Anne Hathaway, Leigh Lezark, Arden Wohl, Rachel Zoe, Irina Lazareanu, and my favorite Gossip Girl - Taylor Momens - were all pimpin’ Erin hard. Afterwards, I headed over to the Ben Sherman store in Soho for their fashion week party featuring a photo installation by Bronques of Last Night’s Party. There was a huge mob out front when I arrived - inside The Ruff Kids were spinning for the glam mods and models who made the cut. With several photographers shooting and Agyness Deyn tearing up the dance floor this went well beyond your average store party - it looked like the “party scene” in a video shoot for a really cool British band. Later that night, I hit the cool midnight party that Seven New York threw for German designer Bernhard Willhelm. On Saturday - after precious little sleep - it was off to the Ruffian show and more non-stop Agyness and Irina action…so much fun shooting photos at this show. Saturday night’s afterparties were a bit of a bust - or maybe I was just too tired to really appreciate them. I felt much more myself after a good night’s sleep, so Sunday bloody Sunday I was back at it full-tilt. My first stop on Sunday was the fantastic Diane von Furstenberg show. She is one of my absolute favorite designers of all-time and this season’s military/30’s/40’s/foreign agent show was a knockout. Leaving the huge main tent at Bryant Park, I popped back downtown for a dose of indie fashion at up-and-coming designer Telfar’s show. Later on Sunday night I ran into Cory and she put me on the list for the Purple Fashion party at the Beatrice Inn. Just when I was thinking I’d had enough for one weekend, there I was diving into a cab for Beatrice. The Purple people - including Terry Richardson, Olivier Zahm, Chloe Sevigny, Irina, AndrewAndrew, Cory Kennedy, Mark Cobrasnake, Danny Ksubi, and Sarah from Colette - were all a bad influence on me. I’m not usually easily swayed but my weakness for fashion got the best of me…check out my photos from the weekend below…more soon…xoxo Gossip Boy
