Fashion Week Fairy Tales

For many people, fashion feels like a fairy tale. Normally, when you think of fashion week, you imagine beautiful women in gorgeous gowns working the runway. It’s natural, because that’s what you’re led think about. But, just like in any other fairy tale, there are people in the background setting the stage for the beauties to take the stage.

Think about Cinderella: Would she have been the belle of the ball if it had not been for her fairy godmother? It took just a little bit of magic to transform her into the future princess of whatever realm she ruled over. In fashion, it’s no different, except in the real world there is no wave of a magic wand. There are people who design the inside of the compound so that the beautiful models have a place to show off the newest looks from the respective designers.

But we cannot forget that a ball would be nothing without princes. New York Fashion Week boasts many shows for connoisseurs of men’s fashion to attend. Designers from Loden Dager (scheduled to show on February 11) to Tommy Hilfiger (February 10) will be well represented throughout the upcoming fashion week. Keep an eye out, because you definitely don’t want to be left looking like a frog.
