Brooklyn Market
Yesterday was the Brooklyn Market fashion show, and it was rainy, cold and rather chaotic. But from watching the video, it seems like it didn't turn out too bad in the end. A lot more people showed up then I had expected, especially considering how tiny the tent that it was held in was and how much it rained. The location certainly could have been better. Several times the tent nearly blew off.
Since I was one of the models I didn't actually get to see much of the event until after the fashion show. The outfits were pretty nice and they looked good walking down the runway (well.. more like in the center of the tent along poles, but still). The dressing tent however was packed, and the hair person didn't show up, and one of the make up artists was like an hour late. One of the fashion designers filled in to do hair and she was great though and I guess it all got done in the end. And the apple cider was good. And I got a bracelet.
Had dinner at about 8:00 at this good little dinner place in Astoria. The food was great there. It rained horribly and we all got soaking wet walking there.. but I admit... it was a lot of fun.
And that is the quick summery of my day. Ironically today appears to be all nice and sunny. And I plan to stay home and lounge around.
