Today at the HFL office we were contemplating a few things when thinking what to give you rabbit beasts to feed on today. Yes, it’s never an easy task when trying to quench your thirst for blood you culture vultures. Of course yet another NYC Fashion Week as come and gone and the most exciting aspect of that week in retrospect was clearly watching the “Kimye Masterpiece Theater” in action during the Marchesa show and of course Jeremy Scott.

It’s the start of a new week and of course Fashion Week continues across the pond in London so expect to see more sights as that gets underway. While we all have that passion for Fashion the question sometimes becomes does the entire exercise ever get old? How many runway shots can a person look at in a day anyway? And don’t get us started on celebrities. Today the topic will be old vs new and to illustrate that point of view we shall look at Halle Berry and Lady Gaga respectively.

Now at first glance OLD would be Halle Berry right? I mean Halle Berry is 46 years of age and Lady Gaga is only 26 right? Over at HFL we know appearances can be deceiving and let’s explore the reasons why shall we?

Anatomy of a Celebrity Appearance during NYC Fashion Week.

Thursday, September 13th, 2012

Kimye Hit Fashion Week and put on a show within a SHOW and HFL breaks it down frame by frame!

New York Fashion week has been a little “thin” when it came to true star power. Stargazing was limited to Kate Bosworth, Kristin Dunst, Ryan Lochte and the NBA. But it wasn’t till the second to last day of Fashion Week that the real star power arrived….KIMYE (Kim Kardashian and Kanye West).

The pair surprised everyone at Wednesday evening’s Marchesa show,watching the runway intently from front row seated beside Tyra Banks. We were pretty psyched to see them there, namely because Kim was wearing an explosive feather confection while Yeezy was bravely rocking the double denim (were these two even dressing for the same event?) Then, within the hour, the pair did a quick costume change and showed up at the Louise Goldin show, with Kim sporting a cute varsity jacket. (Goldin, if you recall, is the British designer who helped Kanye launch his own women’s wear line last year.) Watching Kanye and his “Perfect Bitch” we were entranced with the side show that has become Kimye. It’s hard to really know what is real and what is “celebrity theater” when you gaze at these two. There is always so much to consider when you see them together and that may be precisely by design. Vanity Fair recently wrote a scathing piece about how Scientology was auditioning women/actresses for the role of Mrs. Tom Cruise and as strange as this may have seemed Kimye comes off as just as calculated and contrived. There is very little that Kimye does that is by accident or that is not extremely well coordinated down to the matching outfits and media opportunities from the MTV Award promos (as a couple) to appearances on Keeping up with the Kardashians. It’s hard not to be suspicious of these two but maybe we’re just giving them too much credit. It could be that Kimye are simply just two vapid narcissists who simply share a love of all things material and gaudy (Beyonce Jay-Z anyone?).

Are you ready to review the anatomy of a Kimye appearance during NYC Fashion Week? Is this an organic love connection or a premeditated calculation? More after the turn.
