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”.

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!.
Mercedes-Benz Fashion week, NYC, happens in Lincoln Center twice a year.
This is THE WALL. Six BOUNCERS…..oops……….ticket checkers………guard the door. The 1ooo seats in the tent are coveted by fashionistas……….celebrities and buyers from the worlds leading department stores. You cannot but a ticket for the shows…….it is by invite only.
This is where it is happening.
Koch Ballet Theatre on the left. The Metropolitan Opera House in the Center and Philharmonic Hall on the right. The cultural center of the upper west side.
We are not here for PRINCE IGOR……..rather the fashion shows on the runways in the tents.
The tents are put up in DAMROSH PARK next to the Opera House. It is a public park…….but Lincoln Center takes it over for “Pprivate” affairs [to the tune of $33 million a year]. The local residents in the area have a lawsuit against the Center for usurping their park. Sooooooo……….how long with the tents be able to take over this space?
It can cost up to ONE MILLION DOLLARS [like Marc Jacobs paid] for a 12 minute Runway Show. The tent rental is $60,000 [seats 1000]. If you want a celebrity in your front row………you can get Beyoncé for $100,000.
This is what the tents look like today. More than 100,000 people descend on NY for the Fashion Shows, which bring in almost 1 BILLION to the city’s coffers.
Some beautiful people and a bunch of crazed street style peacocks were all over the Plaza…….as you have seen on my blog.
And a THANK-YOU to all of you who enjoy my BLOG. I certainly enjoy putting it together
