Sarah Jessica Parker, Lindsay Lohan, Hilton Sisters: Fashion Week Front Row Fashionistas
The Name Of The Game Is Seeing And Being Seen
New York Fashion Week is about the celebs who attend to grab free swag as much as the clothes that walk down the catwalk. Who sits where, who wears what and who was blocked at the gate, the drama in Bryant Park is like the Devil Wears Prada crossed with Project Runway, with ten times the egos, bitchy attitudes and hair spray.
Case in point:

Oh, to be a frazzled, unpaid intern hanging out on this tension-filled tableau! Check out the stink eye and “your catchphrase is stupid” vibes Keeping Up With the Kardashians star Kim Kardashian is giving Paris (doing her best Anna Wintour impression) and Nicky Hilton. It’s like the Hatfields vs the McCoys. Or the Real Housewives of Orange County vs High-Definition TV.

One Tree Hill star Sophia Bush has become so ubiquitous at FW that we are starting to suspect that she gets paid to show up like it’s her second job. As much as we admire her plucky courage and restraint in not switching her ex Chad Michael Murray’s hair gel with hair remover after their split, we can’t fathom how she keeps scoring invites since you see her more on the CW than on the red carpet. At the Reem Acra show, the small-screen actress kept it classic and chic in a rich two-toned dress by the designer, worn with the de rigueur YSL Tribute Two pump.

Style star Sarah Jessica Parker of Sex and the City fame was sitting pretty at Alexander Wang in an edgy head-to-toe black ensemble which she paired with black Maison Martin Margiela split-toe boots. ShoeMinxers will recall that the dress-for-less Bitten designer had the fashion world buzzing when she sported a pair of ballet flats last year with the avant-garde designer’s signature silhouette. Could SJP have been scouting looks for the SATC sequel?

These black criss-cross heels are oh so very Carrie.

Taking a break between fights with GF Sam Ronson, Lindsay Lohan’s skinner-than-usual frame caused a flashbulb frenzy at Charlotte Ronson’s show. That, plus her see-through top with stirrup sleeves and built-in bra-strap ventilation system from the designer’s collection which she wore with a pair of Loubs. Seriously, doesn’t that top look like one of those Ice Capades meets early 90s music video bodysuits that have snaps at the crotch?

We’ll pass on the top but say “charge it!” to these cut-out shoes from the collection.
Since we’re still slogging through sleet and slush and counting down the days until the first spring pedicure-ready pair of sandals, footwear for fall 2009 is so not our radar.

But the trend in cut-out booties, like these ‘Tammy’ boots by L.A.M.B., means they can be worn year-round. One style for all four seasons? It’s investment dressing and an economic stimulus purchase all in one.

It’s The Truth, Amanda Bynes Gets Hearts Racing During NY Fashion Week
Would You Like Some Dress With Those Legs & YSL Pumps?

We don’t consider ourselves prudish but What a Girl Wants starlet Amanda Bynes’ little (and we mean that quite literally) dress is a bit uncomfortably gynecological, no?
To be fair, the actress was sporting the red Swarvoski number with an oversize crystal belt and YSL heels for the Heart Truth charity runway show during New York Fashion Week so she probably didn’t pick it herself, but there’s something about it that whispers, “I borrowed this from Paris Hilton.”
And though the event is to raise awareness about heart disease in woman, those in the front row saw more than they bargained for when the blonde flashed a bit of cheek while strutting the catwalk to Beyonce’s hit “Single Ladies.” At that point, we’re pretty sure everyone would have gladly passed a hat to raise funds for a pair of pants to cover her, er . . . assets. How ironic that it’s Amanda’s bottom that really got hearts pounding.

Show off your legs in these stunning Jessica Simpson ‘Lizza’ heels.
