Day 3 at NY Fashion Week was a problem day.  I lost my notebook with all the names/info/emails of the people I photographed for the Blog.  It might turn up, I had my contact details in it and have contacted all who can help.  I have only two names, so please forgive me everyone else and know I will rectify if a kind heart found it.  Here is what I remember.  Top left, hair swirl on someone who works with Michael Kors, his ring and watch follow … Mara Hoffman jewelry designer Fillibyluiny.com, photographed backstage with blue hair, nose ring, a dress and jewelry  like no other … TIGI hairdresser with green hair … Bottom left to right: avant-garde fashion designer with hair gelled up to there … High platform sneakers … Journalism/PR student with jewel-encrusted headband, pearls who wants to intern at Vogue after graduation … At Mara Hoffman backstage, Scott Wimsett, bespokebanter.com in his cool coat from Morocco … fun hat … two fashionista bloggers … Loose pigtails, pleats, great jacket. To see these images bigger, check Seen on Scene on website shortly.

Day 1 at New York Fashion Week was cold with lots of snow not yet fully cleared when I was there very early in the day!   Not much time but here’s a few fashionables Seen on the Scene. The man on the left was interesting from top to toe, and in between.  He ran off into a taxi before I could get his name and details of all the fun stuff he was wearing.  The lilac hair with furs and different-colored glitter nails is Andy Crosten.  Bottom, shoes photographed in the very long, windy/cold line up for press credentials!  Bottom right is Charis in blue feather fur jacket with hand jewelry.  Backstage photos to come later.  Stay tuned …
