Lines and Crowds

Fashion week got kicked off tonight with Fashion's Night Out, an Anna Wintour [Vogue] sponsored evening of late night shopping with celebrity appearances, cocktails, and hor' dourves. Unfortunately the stores that actually did have all these things going on [some just stayed open late like, "the lights are on, you gonna buy something or what?"] had the craziest lines and crowds making it almost impossible to actually shop... or even see the clothes.  

My pictures of the evening are more a montage of lines and crowds with a few interesting faces and pieces....

Y-3

[this what i imagine a person saying before they buy the over priced shell toe model]


the line to the
BAPE STORE


one word: whilling

KIRNA ZABETE on GREENE STREET
one of those small designer boutiques that you always wanted to go into but always get too distracted by big name stores. This store actually had the best atmosphere of the night with a nice crowd, not to packed, definitely not empty, a variety of cocktails, and a killer selection of Fall 09 clothing and accessories that were actually visible.
adorable fashion art
dj mandy of 2 mandy dj's. 
love her for looking chic behind the turntable... the tomboy girl dj look is so 2006
fab necklace
chunky with a spash of color
fab necklace no. 2

this place is so great, even doggies shop here

ORIGINAL PENGUIN
celebrated their grand opening in addition to fashion week
with live window models [those guys were real people]

LOUISE VUITTON
didn't participate in the evenings festivities but some cool kids still hung out in front of the store to soak up the fabulousness 

INTERMIX ON PRINCE STREET
caught Rihanna coming out the store. You know she can actually see through those glasses?

MARC JACOBS on MERCER STREET
*the awesome thing about the night was that you were able to take pics inside the store. something you are NEVER allowed to do



OPENING CEREMONY on HOWARD STREET
hosted a block party*
*block party, in this case, is defined as three cars parked in front of a overflowing store front 



icecream truck no. 2...
i don't really know what was up with that...
me nor any of my friends wanted any
TOMMY HILFIGER
looked totally uninterested in hosting a party at his 
BROADWAY store
random pic at 
TOPSHOP on BROADWAY
doesn't this model look like a white rihanna?



I actually started my night at the NYFC Clash of the Coutures fashion show.
i saw a few things i liked...

white gown

her silhouettes repeated themselves in different colors
but the white pieces stood out looking well constructed and pure
