To some, the end of summer is realized by Labor day weekend or by the sighting of school busses. To me, it’s fashion week. Every August, I know summer is coming to a close when I walk by Bryant Park and see the tents being built. I know that in a few short weeks there will be a frenzy of models, designers and socialites zipping in to see, ironically, what will be hot next summer.
At completely bare, we are busy with calls from editors and models desperate to be smooth and hairless. It is my favorite time of year. I know fall is coming, with its crisp days, and golden leaves. The lazy days of summer are over. So as I prepare for a seemingly endless week of parties and fashion shows, there is one thing troubling me. How do we fashionistas dress at this time of the year?
The temperatures are still in the scorching 90s, but the calendar says September. I’m desperate to wear all the new fall fashions I see in the store windows, but its still so hot out. Do you guys have any advice for me?
