It's the first week of August already, which means New Yorkers watch their city transition yet again: The Garment District slowly begins to shed their interns, our favorite LES bars begin to regain their Manhattanite feel, and New York Fashion Week preparations are underway. But before we rush through the remainder of summer too quickly, let's reflect on the warm-weather industry happenings thus far:
PumaCity Events. Some were chic, some were wild, some weren't worth mentioning. Regardless, the sheer volume of industry parties thrown at the PumaCity venue in South Street Seaport exhibits how soccer, for a fleeting moment, became fashionable.
Creators Project. Sponsored by Intel and Vice Magazine, loved by all attendees. Creations included performances by Die Antwoord and Interpol, art exhibitions by Hojun Song, and a short film by Spike Jonez, just to name a few. The New York event, which took place on June 26, rocked Milk Studios with music, mingling, and a 12-hour multi-level open bar.
Sidewalk Catwalk. We love it. We talked about it. And it's still going strong. Unveiled on June 24, this outdoor art will stand fashionably between Herald and Times Square until Labor Day.
