After our first day of shows at Bryant Park on Tuesday, we kicked off our day bright and early with our client Jeremy Scott's show at Milk Studios at 1:00PM. After arriving to the office and mobilizing the interns, sending them to Milk Studios with all of Jeremy's supplies, lists, Longchamp tote bags for front-rowers, Alternative Apparel "Pray for Fashion" T-Shirts and Jeremy Scott for Proper Attire condoms.

Once I arrived at Milk I helped out setting up the gift bags on all the seats and was then assigned to work the door, in the freezing cold in just my favorite tattered grey T-shirt and my new Rick Owens S/S 2010 motorcycle leather jacket. After check in I headed up to the second floor just in time to catch the opening of Jeremy's first show back in NY in 5 years.
The collection, which was inspired by fashion itself, seemed like yet another ode to the '90s, which is proving to be the big trend of the season. It was primarily black and featured some awesome show pieces like jewel encrusted motorcycle jackets and velvet mini dresses covered with dangling jeweled crosses, which my girl Becka Diamond was OBSESSING over in the front row. While the show was truly spectacular, my Milk highlight was definitely Kelly Osbourne running over to me after the show ended to chat with me about her buddy Blake who supposedly looks exactly like me and has been called "Andrew from Bravo" all of fashion week!

After the show ended I headed back to the office to catch up on some work while most of our staff worked the Ahmed Mahfouz show at the Altman building. We finished up the list for the Jeremy Scott after party, which was scheduled to start at 10:00PM at Good Units in the basement of the Hudson Hotel, but at 8:00PM all eyes were glued to their computers as Proenza Schouler showed their incredible Noir-Clueless meets Gossip Girl collection. I can pretty much sum it up in 5 words: Glam, Goth, Gossip Girl, Grunge - Quadrouple G.

After the show I spent a solid hour brainstorming which letterman-style jacket I'm gonna NEED to pick up come next September, opting for look 16's white sleeved blue fur trimmed version, and then jumped in a cab to set up for Jeremy's after party. As Santigold, Amanda Blank and Spankrock performed and The Misshapes DJ'ed, a very cool downtown crowd partied over Belvedere and Ben & Jerry's in the massive clubby feeling space. One more day of New York fashion week and one more show to go. Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel! Check in again tomorrow to see how my fashion week comes to a close!
