{Wear This, Not That}

{ Cuff - Lanvin }

{ Platforms - Marc Jacobs }

Last night I attended a student showcase fashion show. Firstly- I had an excellent time and saw some killer collections. Secondly- I realized that people simply DO NOT know how to dress for a fashion show. Believe it or not there are ground rules. 

Rule 1: A fashion show is to showcase the designer's work-not the attendees, while you should look your best, you should not be a distraction. 

Rule 2: Make sure whatever you wear is properly pressed.

Rule 3: A fashion show is NOTHING like the prom, so wearing a ball gown=OVERKILL.

Rule 4: Ball caps, jeans, tee-shirts, hoodies, sneakers...? Should I even have to finish this sentence? Not.Okay.

Rule 5: Dress like yourself. Everyone knows you aren't a character from Sex and The City so no matter how many cosmos you pre-game- you aren't fooling anyone.

It's all pretty simple. 

After all the wardrobe confusion I witnessed at last night's event I assembled the idiot proof fashion show outfit shown above.
