Fashion Week - Day 5

Jayne:

Today was the last day of Fashion Week and you could see everyone was a little relieved. Eight days is a long time.... over 60 collections and more than 100,000 fashion/retail devotees visited the tents this past week. We loved airing our show live from the Moet & Chandon Lounge and if you missed it, please listen to the podcast! Director of Communications for BOOTS, Sandra Gabriele told us about the 150 year old UK pharmacy and all their fantastic cosmetic/skincare brands. We are hooked!

AT noon, Jen and I made our way to the Hammerstein Ballroom on 34th Street to see the Tommy Hilfiger show. Tommy is one of our favorite guys...........he is a neighbor here in CT and a nicer bunch of people you will never find than at his corporate office. The collection will be a huge hit in Europe where the conservative preppy style reigns. The Sloan Ranger girls in the UK and the kids in the 14th district in Paris will also love it. It is feminine, frilly and a little flirty with some of the best trench coats we have seen for the season.

Jen:
Today was the final chapter in the Spring '08 history book. The book will be
defined by the location(which started off as questionable) and ended up the
location for the next 2 years as per Fern Mallis Executive Vice-President of
IMG on A Fashionable Life last Wednesday.


The shows that were most directional were:


Vera Wang - feminine, drapey, hues of gray and purple.

Michael Kors - 70's chic. Think Marisa Berenson, Jackie O and the women who personify unstudied cool.

BCBG - great dresses. Young Hollywood will be sporting Max Azaria's Spring
frocks all over the Hills of Beverly!

Jayne and I loved sharing airtime with our guests: Jarett Wieselman, Lifestyle Director of InTouch Weekly, Sandra Gabriele, Communications Director of Boots UK, Fern Mallis, IMG and EVERYONE at Moet and Chandon and Nike Communications for the fabulous venue for broadcasting the first two national broadcasts of A Fashionable Life.
