“The ever-sharp Cynthia Rowley acknowledged the relevance of Resort by taking her collection to the streets in a bus that stopped for sidewalk shoots, as pictured above, at the Condé Nast and Hearst
buildings.” Fashion shows on delivery, interesting. Maybe in the future, we’ll order up a pizza, put on our jammies, and wait for the runway bus to come to us.

I'm new to this site and looking for some advice from other fashion entrepreneurs.

I'm trying to start my own lingerie web site as serious, viable, sustainable business. I've done a lot of modeling over the years, mostly for lingerie and swimsuit catalogs, but there's a lot of competition here in Manhattan, and I'm not getting any younger. I've been studying sites like Victoria's Secret, Fredericks of Hollywood, Yandy, and HerRoom for ideas, but those sites are all huge and pretty overwhelming to

All roads lead to New York, and we’ve made a shooting for the second FotyMody issue exactly in this city. The weather must be said wasn’t so sweet. It was rainy and windy day with slush. We have to give ours due to a model because she overcame everything and jumped and run and climbed the fence!
