Fashion Week Stumbles Into Town
Apparently Fashion Week had its official kickoff last night at Radio City with the Fashion Rocks concert, but large venues are so tacky. The real action is, predictably, in the lineup, and especially regarding the celebrity collections. Gwen Stefani's L.A.M.B. line has snagged the coveted Friday 8 p.m. slot, previously held by Jennifer Lopez. Meanwhile, Destiny's only Child Beyoncé Knowles has pulled her line from the shows, as it undoubtedly sucks.
But enough of this shallowness. What about that certain je ne sais quoi of this week? What of the sheer joy of nicotine in the air and chalky Colombian baby powder scenting the tents? If this isn't the most wonderful time of the year, we don't know what is. So put down your muffins, bitches, and focus: Kenneth Cole's show is at 10 a.m. today, and you best not show up looking like you dared go to bed last night.
