NYFW: Will you be at Milk Studios or Bryant Park?

The NYFW competition begins....

Kim Kardashian is showing her line for Bebe at Bryant Park which just gives Milk even more ammunition to be the number one spot to show collections.  This showing (along with a QVC showing) takes credibility away from the tents at Bryant Park.  Also take note that Milks line up has increased to 32 shows this season, over last seasons 25 shows.  The meat packing district location will now include Jeremey Scott, McQ by Alexander Mcqueen and Vena Caca.  These lines will join Proenza, Temperley London and many others who showed at Milk last season.

Milk also just announced that Surf Lodge, the popular Montauk bar and restraunt will be hosting a small pop-up restaraunt on Sunday of the shows.  Seating will be extremely limited, only 40 people can dine at once to be exact.  We think this will up the exclusivity and allure of Milk Studios.

Which of the two locations do you think will be more successful?

Fashion week Day 2: Erin Wasson for RVCA

It is no secret that we LOVE Erin Wasson.  When people ask us our fashion icon, we quickly answer with her name.  Not only is she Alexander Wang's muse and stylist, but she just is downright badass.  We were giddy waiting to see what her show would entail.  Obviously the show started late, the crowd was intense and very hipster and there was a surprise performance from the brooklyn group Gang Gang Dance.  As a former model herself, Erin packed the runway with big name walkers such as Chanel Iman and Lily Donaldson.  The crowd was it girl packed as well, Chrissie Miller, Harley Newton, Cory Kennedy, Taylor Momsen etc.  Let's just say she had NO problem filling the big tent in bryant park.

We love the desert influence, the southern california vibe and the drapery of many of the pieces.  Some people negatively critiqued the models "dirty" look, but we absolutely love it.

Here are our three favorite looks.
