My New York Fashion Week Experience!



Last week was the start of the fashion show cycles! First stop, NEW YORK! Lucky me I was there to volunteer and get in on some of the action! I can't tell you how amazing it was to just even be in Lincoln Center and just breathe in the air of fashion! Being a show is something indescribable. It's this great big rush of high energy and passion. I decided to go through IMG itself in order to volunteer, and I got picked out of 4,000 people to apply and only 450 were chosen! YAY!
The first show I got to attend was actually a presentation!

Brandon Sun "Silent Assassins" 

The clothes were beautiful, and simple but yet they had detail! Here are some of my favorite looks
I was obsessed with the fur vest and the model she was a sweetheart!

I love the sheerness of the skirt with the toughness added by the leather and fur jacket

Brandon Sun is a master with fur

This model was the first model you saw and rightfully so! Her outfit was so masculine but yet it still emoted femininity!

This skirt was so beautiful the picture doesn't do it justice, it was textured. The shape reminded me of a mermaid fin.


The second show I attended was also a presentation 
Katya Lenovich 
Her clothes were very pretty and different here are a few of my favorites! 





and the final show of New York Fashion Week 2012 for Fall 2012 was ! 
Diane Von Furstenberg 
Oh! The luscious colors, plunging neckline, slits and asymmetrical shapes!
     Rendezvous









AMMMMAAAAZING!

Not only were the clothes amazing but all in attendance! 
From Bravo Andy,Barbara Walters, Diane Sawyer, Anderson Cooper, Bill Cunningham, Molly Sims, Rachel Zoe, Oscar De La Renta AND! the Queen herself! Anna Wintour! + more that I probably missed! 
I noticed Bravo Andy during the show taking a photo of the Silver Fox, so I check his twitter and discovered this photo

apparently I had an itch! but that person near the top security guard is me!! AWESOME!

THEN ------ 
When I saw the Queen herself I was nearly shaking, anyone who knows me I am obsessed with Anna Wintour! I adore her and would love to have her job any day! So when I saw her standing about 10 inches away from me I couldn't help but stare! 
There I am standing mere inches away from Anna! AH! (look to the right of Mr. De La Renta's Shoulder near the little girl)


All I have to say is Brava Diane Brava! and thank you for making my volunteer experience one of the best!!! Getting to see you work was a true privilege and thank you for showing your gratitude by thanking us!
