The venue for this occasion takes place in Bryant Part in New York City (located at the corner of forty-second and sixth streets). The which is eight acres in size is changed into an immense arena of fashion garnered in large tents.

Each separate gigantic tent has air conditioning and is separated into several areas. Each individual venue is separated into roughly twelve thousand square feet and has an integrated runway, accompanying guest seating, lighting sound, as well as area for back stage activities.

The venues are used by the designers to present their ongoing designs and work; they arrange and furnish the area in accordance with their own personal taste. The tent walls are outfitted with small booths, where products designated for promotion are being given away or sold. New York fashion week happens two times a year.

Designs for the forthcoming fall season are featured at the fashion week show which occurs the preceding February. Designs for the approaching spring are featured in the September fashion show.

So Your Thinking About Going to Fashion Week?

The typical attendees at fashion week are celebrities, journalists, fashion purchasers, and social types. Because this event is by invitation only, journalists who wish to go must seek accreditation prior to the event. You will very likely see just a few celebrities at each show.

It is clear, you will very likely notice fashion models in addition to numerous well known designers. If you happen to work your way into an invitation to the event, curiously there is not formal type of dress code to follow. The majority of individuals adopt the “anything goes” rule.

Although comfort does play a part, the primary goal of dressing up for fashion week is to establish a unique wardrobe that will give expression to your own individual sense of fashion. If your an individual who has a passion for design fashions, then a trip to fashion week is the event for you.

In addition to receiving the opportunity to witness all the up to date designs prior to then showing up in stores, you will have an incredible amount of fun as well. So even though it might appear to be next to impossible to receive an invitation to fashion week, never say never – if nothing else, at a minimum you can read about the exciting events at the show in the latest fashion trend magazine.

I have a college degree. I attended the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising and received an AA in Fashion Merchandise Product Development. So that explains the fashion theme! And also my major covered business, financial planning, marketing, sales figures, etc. etc. etc., ad nauseum.

My dad is an accountant. Well, technically he ranks right below a CPA but he can do everything they do and then some. I grew up around what he does, and I worked with him building his the business that he owns and doing bookkeeping for three years.

I’m a professional blogger. Right now I’m in between contract jobs, but that’s been my career for about the past year.
I designed Luxe Loot. I made that background by hand, and all of the graphics using a few stock images. It was PAIN, but I saved $50 by only having Shift Code install my layout instead of designing it too (and an extra $50 for those drop down boxes…yikes!). I like things done my way and I’m pretty picky about that!

This isn’t my first GPT site. I was the co-owner of an ads only site called Mad4Ads.com. From that experience I learned to always go solo when it comes to business!

My favorite stores are Express, BeBe, Banana Republic, Mango, Arden B., BCBG and Sky. I just thought I’d let you all know since I asked you when you signed up for Luxe Loog
