I had my DAILY hand delivered……….and I am skipping all SHOWS. I am not venturing forth into the SNOW.
I will NOT be in the front row. Hollywood stars seem to be absent from the front row this year……..the luster of a famous names seems to have faded.
My friend Margo………and her Dahli Llama made the
“Wolly be my Valentine”.

Renate and I dropped in at BARNEY’S new Chelsea store.
Is the renovation spectacular………..YES YES YES !!!
The lunch room……..simple…….elegant…….sophisticated.
A glass of wine…………….and
Tuna tartar……perfection.
Chicken and chips………
Pizza………too much crust….but tasty.
The boutiques blend into each other……as do the prices.
Three different jackets………each about the same price….$2200
Sweet! At $1800 not so sweet.
Heels…………$2800…………Renate did NOT buy them.
RENATE……..a fashion designer……lives in Nice France………but when she is in New York……..we spend the afternoons together……….shopping and eating.

MARGO invited Don and I to the PARSONS FESTIVAL •2016• School of Fashion • GRADUATE EXHIBITION.
It was “PARTY TIME”…………with graduate students exhibiting their fashion creations.
Talented designers ready to “launch” into the fashion world.
Pick your style……….pick your designer………..get out your charge card………..head to Bloomies………Bergdorf……..Lord&Taylor.…………and the boutiques on Madison Ave…….then STRUTT YOUR STUFF.
Lots of fur [some faux]……….leather………….lace…………fishnet and some very kinky boots.
This week at the “opens studios ” of the fashion students at Parsons School of Design…it was my pleasure to meet a zany…………..funny………….and oh so talented designer……….ZUOYU SHI.
Her designs are incredible……….edgy and oh so kool!
Mandarin is, of course, her native tongue………but just as fluent in english.
AN ERA IS OVER……….the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week tents are coming down………and will never be raised again.
New Yorkers who live in the area sued the Metreoplolitasn Opera House………..which takes in $33 million a year renting out the PUBLIC SPACES. New Yorkers want their park back……..and they WON! No more fashion shows under the tents at Lincoiln Center. Mercedes has withqtawn their corporate sponsorship.
THE WALL! No one gets past this wall into the tents without a pass…….and those are nearly impossible to get. You can’t buy your way in!
The snow covered tents are in the upper left hand corner.
Then tent on the left…….1000 seats. The SALON on the right………..700 seats.
The tent in the middle………. VIP’S! Very hard to get into.
By the end of this week……….no trace of the tents will be visible. The New Yorkers who live around here………….are very happy!.
