A Day @ #NYFW

New York Fashion Week might just be a dream come true for most people who want a piece of the glamour, trends, and a new styles. But for others it’s a lot less and a lot more than that. By the end of the week you have already experienced a crazy world wind of days.

For some, a daily routine during fashion week is waking up and getting ready for the day. If its summer time, you’re ready to check the weather and pair it with your favorite suit, shoes, dress shirt, tie, button down, shorts, tank, dress, skirt, fur, coat, blazer, and more so. When good old mother nature turns into snow your bound to find yourself digging through your wardrobe for heavy jackets and coats, heels, dresses, shoes, boots, shirts, ties, suits, button downs, sweaters, hats, and pretty much any less clothes to wear possible.

After you’re done getting naked and putting clothes on, it’s on to breakfast. Maybe it’s a bagel and croissants, maybe it’s an old fashion English breakfast, or maybe it’s a rush to Dunkin with the disposable change you have kept in your back pocket. Whatever it may be I can assure you that a short or early breakfast is one everyone’s to do list. After all, you want to look your best so the non photo guys can feel famous snapping your photo or even getting in the way.

After all of this, it’s time to call an Uber or take the train and head over to start your day at New York Fashion Week. For some, some days are longer than others. It includes going to show to show, events in-between, business meetings run arounds, and lastly if you’re lucky enough attending parties at the end of the night. All fun and games right?

My days consist of getting told what not to do, getting yelled at by PR team members while arguing back, being where I’m not supposed to be and being told to leave, and gathering a clientele of new familiar faces. It’s all just fun and games right? Sometimes! While other times consist of not getting into fashion shows, showing up late, being crowded by “photo guys”, and even breaking the rules through security.

Some days are harder than others. From having to wait in line to get into a show while bring crowded by “this” person or “that” person which makes things much harder when you’re trying to be different, to being seen by some familiar faces at shows, or even being the man of the hour with the sign. Everyone’s day is different but everyone always seems to be around. If you ever attend #NYFW watch yourself. People are friendly, but know your boundaries. If you’re like me, following your dreams, then I advise you to become EXTREMELY smart with what you want to do, and then break every rule you can.
