The Fashion in New York City has no words to describe it. That is because this is one of the few places, aside from Tokyo perhaps, where one can dress in such a way that limits are not a factor. In fact Tokyo is probably the best city to compare with New York because both citys are defined by a strict divide in styles of dress. On the one end, the conservative, basic black, function seen in the new age of adult careerists. On the otheris the youth movement, those who break the mold and bring the fresh, insanity of possibility and carefree furvor to the world of fashion.
Those fresh, young hipsters celebrate the city for Fashion Week this week and there was no better way to kick off a week of beauty and creative passion than Fashion's Night Out. Fashion's Night Out, a celebration of music, clothing, and pop culture, was created by Anna Wintour in an effort to ressurect the excitement of the retail store, and bring today's computer generation back out to the streets. Such streets included 5th avenue where everyone from the stars of Glee to the spectacular Nikki Minaj could be seen everywhere from Saks to Versace; Soho where Rachel Zoe set the shoppers of the trendy boutique Intermix abuzz with the semi stressed out energy of obsession; and of course, the Meatpacking District, where several local indie bands made the walls of Theory, Vince and Tory Burch, pulsate with the sound of youth.
This last weekend, outside on the steps of lincoln center, the fashion week regulars put on a show of their own. Though, not famous, these fashionistas, both young and old, showed off their own personal styles, wearing everything from the most glamorous dresses, to the grungiest of jeans. It was a statement that no matter what showed up on that runway, the personal style of today's new group of young new yorkers, can never be pinned down.
