New Fashion Week. . . New Experiences in NY

Just getting back from working on a several events with New York Fashion Week. It was an absolute blast. We'll start with my arrival into the city. . getting into our normal black car service, I have this brand new driver who legit has only been driving legally for 2 months. .how he got that job is well beyond my scope. However, I digress. Get to the first venue approximately 15 minutes late thanks to my driver and do a walk through with AZ (the designer) Ricco his producer, and a PR and publicist team of like 12. Got those T's crossed and I'd dotted and then proceeded to have a well deserved glass of wine with the owner of Models Hotel which is this really cool boutique social organization that plans and produces high end celebrity and model driven events. I am now acting as their official event producer and designer. Such a blessing!

The next night, we worked with them on Christian Sirano's show and after party. I after setting the room, calling cues for the show got to play door guy and watch as hundreds attempted to get into the event. The event took place in the meat packing district at this fabulous little venue that we were turned onto. Celebrity attendees included Gabrielle Union, Mena Suvari,Jimmy Fallon and more. Svedka was the presenting sponsor for this event. It is amazing how many people and how many paps were there to take part in his festivities. Our team hit it out of the park.

Gabrielle, Christian and his Boyfriend.

The next evening we worked on the Vanexianna after party. This show was a bit more subdued. So a funny story I thought I would share. I always like to totally think of myself as in the know and up on who's who. well apparently I was schooled on this particular night. It would seem that some it girls from MTV's the HILLS were in attendance. I went outside and grabbed a cigarette and ran across this beautiful gal in amazing shoes.

turns out it was Lo Bosworth and Stephanie Pratt. Now I do know Spencer and Heidi as well as have heard of Stephanie. .however, LO totally has me fooled.  well as it turns out, she is writing a book and attempting a new tv show of some sort. I wish her all the best. She was quite lovely.

We left Studio 21 and headed down to the Village to catch up with YMCA veteran Randy Jones. That portion of the evening is always fun entertaining and way too late!

Headed back into the city in a couple of days for more meetings and looking forward to continuing such fun events.
