So I was one of the very un-lucky people to attend the lecture and I have to say, it was a complete bore! The most exciting part was the very beginning, when PETA "attacked!"
The interview itself felt VERY practiced and scripted, as if she knew which questions she had to answer (except for the audience ones). And none of the information that was passed around was anything new - only the little tidbit about an exciting project with the Mayor and City of New York that will be revealed next week - my guess would be the Garment District? Although it could also be regarding the Lincoln Center Fashion Shows.
The interview ended thirty-five minutes early - to my relief.
And lastly, to the woman who wore that Balmain jacket to the event - what were you thinking? It's a LECTURE at the 92Y, not a fashion event.
