Fashion Is Fun

A Mini-Met?

model mayhem at the whitney.jpgThe Whitney Art Party’s on Wednesday night and we’ve gotten the first edition of the confirmed guest list.

Starlets and artists will be there in droves, but as far as models go, there’s Coco Rocha, Lydia Hearst, Dree Hemingway, Brooklyn Decker, Lisa Cant, Julie Henderson, Maggie Rizer, Selita Ebanks and Hilary Rhoda.

And of course, we have no idea what to wear, especially since the party’s sponsored by BCBG again which means all of their perfect little bodies will be swathed in Herve bandages with feet tucked into sky high heels. Because sure, no one’s looking at us, but it takes a serious outfit to guarantee we won’t hide in a corner under the weight of being anything less than 5’11 with long blond hair and the perfect Rick Owens leather jacket.

So, should we follow in the footsteps of last year with a long vintage floral number, flat sandals and little effort? Or, is it time to step it up with something a bit smaller and louder? If only we had this in our closet.

We get it... models are incredible, unique and intimidating, and it's difficult planning an ensemble for a fashion event. But I kind of expect a little less neurotic insecurity from Fashionista. It might be better to do a post on how to look fabulous even when you're not model proportioned, than bemoaning that you lack legs up to here and a designer dress (even if that Ann D is to die for). Even if we don't get to see chic, realistic fashion choices, can we lay of the meek self deprecation?

I find what models wear boring and predictable.

That blck/wht Demeulemeester is hot or you can do another variation on this

I agree with #2. You're fashionista! Also, can we at least see your outfits post-party if you're going to talk about them here? xo http://isnotfashion.blogspot.com

So you have to be tall, white and ultra thin in order to stand out? Sucks being you, in your industry, where you are.

I agree with Rashomon. I don't think models have the best style. And you're Fashionista! Better work it out.

i suggest you wear something really pretty like an over the top puffy skirt cocktail dress to stand out against those skin tight dresses
