One of my favourite pieces from Prabal Gurung’s fall/winter 2012 collection is this gorgeous gold coat made out of some astroturf-like material. I had goosebumps when I saw it backstage before the show. Talk about love at first sight; it has my name stamped all over it! I have never seen anything like this before…
Where/how do I place an order…


I’ve been running around Manhattan like a rat. I slept early last night with hopes I’d catch up on much-needed sleep but eventually waking up at 4AM to the sound of rain banging on my window.
New York Fashion Week officially starts tomorrow. I had the privilege of visiting some of my favorite designers who gave me a preview and an intimate, personal run-through of their collection just days prior to their shows. Everyone is cool, calm and collected. No screaming matches, no panic, no drama. There’s a sense of confidence from all three men (Prabal Gurung, Jason Wu and Peter Som). They should be confident. I saw many beautiful garments up close. I got to touch the fabrics, play with the clothes and see the workmanship behind pieces, which, to be honest, deserve more than a mere forty-five second walk on the runway or an image on the internet. It’s moments like this that make me realize, damn, I really love my job.
My dearest readers, I’ll share the photos after their shows.
Thank you Prabal, thank you Jason and thank you Peter. I can’t wait to see your collections on the runway.

The Night Before Chanel
Too many parties, too little time. Whether it’s New York, London, Milan or Paris, it’s the same story during fashion month.
I’ve been good this season. I didn’t go to most of the parties I was invited to attend because after a day’s worth of shows and early call times (I still have yet to attend a 9AM or is it 10AM Bottega Veneta show…), the last thing I want to do is to stay up all night. I don’t understand how other people do it — work the whole day, party all night. When do they sleep… if they ever sleep at all?
