The changes made by IMG, the governing company, for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week has made to “The Tents” at Lincoln Center since last February in still in place. The media list is significantly smaller, crowds are not as large and the check-in process is intense. Though things have relaxed about from the introduction of these new directives since February, MBFW is not what is used to be. And in honesty, some of the changes are good!!
What hasn’t changed is all the wacky, eccentric fashion that is paraded on the Plaza at Lincoln Center, in “The Tents” lobby, and other venues. One has to wonder if people actually dress this badly or is all for photo-op.
Bad fashion seems to be here to stay during New York Fashion Week. And just for fun, Fashion Reverie every day will present some of this outlandish fashion just for your entertainment. You may have to shield your eyes sometimes, but remember it is all in fun, so just enjoy!!
