What we're about to tell you might make you really sad, it might make you really angry, but please know that no one's more devastated than us:
We got locked out of Alexander Wang's show yesterday.
There we were, with some very angry sponsors, some very important people from Elle and Interview, some crucial buyers and some friends from Glamour, and about twenty other people, huddling under the 6-inch awning begging, pleading, about-to-be-crying with the hefty security guard who had strict orders not to let anyone, no one, else into the show.
The invite said 5 pm and we arrived at 5:20, which, if you've never been to a fashion show, is politely prompt. However, it's bright and fucking early if there's a tropical storm raging through Chelsea and knee-high puddles on every corner congesting the entirety of 10th Avenue. We thought to ourselves, Who actually made it in there this early? And why did they start so close to time?
We saw the pictures on Style.com and will begrudgingly admit, it was a pretty amazing collection.
But we're still mad.
At least Anna made it in - it was her first time to see his show...

Better be careful not to complain too much. Leslie the PR is really cranky about people questioning her and her handling of guest capacity.
