8 Things You'll See At New York Fashion Week

New York Fashion Week has officially begun and the bi-annual style craze has taken over the city! These are the 8 things you're sure to see if you're attending!

8. Smartphones

With magazine editors and style bloggers sitting front row hoping to capture each moment on their smartphones, you'll end up watching most shows through Instagram filters in a sea of carefully-balanced iphones and well-manicured hands.

7. Fashion Week Survival Kits

With back to back shows + parties and little time to breathe in-between, a fashion week survival kit is necessary! You'll see attendees quickly change from sky-high designer heels to flats as they rush from one show to the next. When it comes to fashion week, never leave home without your lifelines: aka a portable phone charger, lipstick, and a mini bottle of dry shampoo.

Outside Lincoln Center, you'll see countless style mavens posing in the hopes of getting snapped by their favorite fashion photographer. And with such a high-profile guest list, you'll likely have a total fan girl moment when you see your favorite celeb strolling leisurely to their VIP seat.

5. Green Juices, Coconut Water, and Caffeine- Everywhere!

Six shows a day will leave even the most seasoned fashion week pro exhausted, and you'll need fuel to power through the style madness. There's no such thing as too much caffeine, and by the end of the week, you'll practically live for the raw juices and coffee readily available backstage.

4. The Post-Show Dash to Find a Cab

If there's one thing you're guaranteed to see at fashion week (besides PR girls working backstage check-in as if it were security for the White House), it's the stampede of editors rushing to hail cabs after shows. By day two, you'll be on a first-name basis with your cab driver.
