Fashion Week starts this week. It is the official beginning of what is now being known as Fashion Month.
From New York to Paris, all the jet-setters and socialites will be lining the coveted front rows. And if luck be a lady, many designers will be lining their pockets as retail orders come in for their new designs.
The A-listers all the way down to the D-listers will be doing their best to pretend that they don't want to get their pictures taken.
And crazy people with even crazier outfits will fill the tents and streets. Insanity will reign for a whole month as every teenage girl with way too much of daddy's money will try to rush out to get whatever is the newest 'it' thing for the season.
Nearby drug stores will see an increase in sales of 5-hour energy drinks, breath mints and Jack Daniels. And with all the ladies running around in 6-inch heels, Dr. Scholls will have some of their best sells profits of the year. Yes, the Woodstock of the fashion world is once again upon us.
But don't worry, I'll be right here at home watching all the action safely from my laptop. I'll be drinking my Lady Grey tea, snuggled under my electric blanket while sifting through all the fashion fluff in order to find those cute items that you can't wait to knit.
If any of you care to join me, feel free to let me know your favorites as they walk down the red carpet. I'll be rolling them out, along with their knitted or crocheted counterparts throughout the month. On Twitter? Go ahead and send me a tweet. You can find me @KnitTheRunway. See you on the flip side!
