Fashion Week Backstage Attire

Hey Luvs,


Fashion Week FA2010 began yesterday however; it started off rough for the fashion world learning about the demise of fashion legend Alexander McQueen. I have to say its a very tragic situation and the talented amazing designer will definitely be missed by all. 


~R.I.P~


As usual there are lots of shows scheduled the next few days for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week and yourz truly will be behind the scenes working five of them and in the front scenes doing a write up for three of them. Not bad if I say so myself. Today kicked off for me with 3.1 Phillip Lim who is personally one of my all time favorites so it was truly an honor.


During my time today as I was working I observed the backstage crew, including myself, and what everyone was wearing. Working backstage is a world in itself for any show during fashion week. The iconic color worn backstage for pretty much all shows is black. There are many reasons we could use for validating that color, but the obvious points are clear: its timeless, professional and the best color to make a fashionable person show their true individuality. What more could fashionistas ask for? While backstage wearing black from the wardrobe assistants to the PR crew no two people will look the same and everyone is wearing the same color. In my opinion its a genius idea.


With that being said I thought I would share with you all a few simple pieces that can be mixed and matched while wearing black and working backstage for fashion week. This is just to give you some ideas and insight on how important black is while working backstage and being comfortable if you can ;-).







This weekend I am helping a friend with his runway show which should be very interesting and exciting a lot of important people will be in attendance. Stay tuned for that.

Yanni.
