Day 2 - Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week is a busy day because we have multiple shows to attend.  We started with General Idea at the Lincoln Center.  The lines standout was the colorful backpacks that each model wore with the corresponding outfit.  The audience was made up of most a young Asian crowd.  

Next we headed downtown to the Meatpacking District to catch the Cushnie et Ochs show at the Milk Building.  I saw their fall show last year and I must say I did not see a lot of new changes in this seasons line. I am a big fan of Cushnie et Ochs but was a little disappointed with the presentation this season.

After racing back uptown to Lincoln Center I made my way to the American Express Skybox where I watched the Rebecca Taylor and the Academy of Arts shows.

Mercedes Benz New York Fashion Week - Day 1

Day 1 of New York Fashion week actually started in Boston with Ophelia and me driving to the city via the Mass Turnpike. The drive down was uneventful until we reached the New York State border and proceeded to get lost 3 times while following Mapquest directions. Anyway, we finally make it to our hotel (The Empire Hotel) directly across from the Lincoln Center, location of the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week tents. The venue is a beautiful location.

Next we headed over to the tents to check out the surroundings and the extraordinary fashions that everyone is wearing. There is a parade of fashionistas (male and female) gathered in all their sartorial splendor. Everyone is dressed in the most daring and stylish outfits they can find.

Blogger extraordinaire "Because I Am Fabulous" was one of the first people we spotted outside the tents. Check out those Louboutin boots. Wow Chicka!!
