    For celebrities looking to cut loose before the official after-party, Charlotte Ronson is their fashion show; this is, after all, where Samantha Ronson takes a break from her DJing duties to blast an air horn as the models take their final walk. This year, however, things were a bit crazier than usual in the front row. No one, it seemed, came alone—Sky Ferreira was joined by her boyfriend, the Virgins bassist Nick Zarin-Ackerman, Byrdie Bell sat next to her beau Nicholas McCarrell, and Angela Simmons came with not one guest, but two: her uncle Russell Simmons and her Pomeranian. It’s been a busy Fashion Week for Simmons—she’s already logged appearances at BCBG Max Azria, Tadashi Shoji, Costello Tagliapietra, and Cynthia Rowley—but it seems there’s a secret to her endurance: “You need to make sure you eat—if you don’t, you’re going to be exhausted. I’m a little tired, but [on Thursday] I got a 20-minute quick power nap that got me going.” The hardest part for her? Getting dressed. “There’s so much pressure [to look good]—I changed twice yesterday. I started the day in a completely different outfit,” she said. Nikki Reed’s no stranger to the quick change either, having traded the sequined jacket she wore to Rebecca Minkoff a few hours earlier for a Charlotte Ronson suede blazer and dress. Turns out it’s much harder to decide what to wear for a fashion show than for the red carpet. “First of all, the red carpet is about who you are and your style, but there is also something about glaming it up and going with what’s in style, whereas at a fashion show it’s about showing your personality a bit more, so there’s a little more pressure to get it all right,” she explained. Not everyone was so worried about getting ready for the show. Nicky Hilton insisted that she didn’t spend much time thinking about what to wear—“I get dressed very fast,” she noted. Same goes for Ferreira, whose rolled-out-of-bed rock’n’roll look isn’t an act: “I go to the fitting or whatever, they send me clothes…and then I just put on some lipstick and I go!”

    With Saturday’s snow—and freezing temperatures—you couldn’t blame a few first row attendees for thinking wistfully about their normal weekend routines, those sans six-inch heels and blinding flashbulbs. “I live in L.A. so I try to go to the beach on the weekends, and there are some great restaurants on the beach where you can get a drink and relax—I’m very much about tuning out,” said Louise Roe while waiting for Tibi to start. The TV host-turned-fashion designer did manage to squeeze in some downtime before the shows, checking up on her favorite websites—including ELLE.com: “I saw something funny on your site today—I’m obsessed with loads of different blogs. You’ve got to be all up-to-date!” Coco Rocha admitted at Herve Leger that she too would probably be in front of her computer if she weren’t sitting in front of the runway. “A typical afternoon I’d be working on social media, just hanging out with the hubby and being in my pajamas—something with extra give,” she said with a nod to her skin-tight bandage dress. In other words, no Herve? “No, not on my weekend when I’m having brunch and sleeping in,” said Rocha, adding, “Unless he makes a pajama one day!” Inspired, Rocha tugs at her dress and continues: “I think [Herve Leger] should do a workout video—the dress is so tight that I could do lunges, don’t you think? I’d get nice thighs! I think we should bring back a good ‘80s video.” While Rocha’s been enjoying Fashion Week for years—first on, then off the runway—Nina Dobrev was making her very first appearance. After stops at Herve Leger and Christian Siriano, Dobrev capped off the day with a front row seat at Monique Lhuillier. The Vampire Diaries star admitted that she was feeling a bit overwhelmed: “[There’s] a lot of flashing, a lot of pictures….I’m starting to go blind from the flashes. I’ll be able to wake up tomorrow and say it’s real.” In the meantime, Dobrev turned the runway show into a bit of a game, trying to spot which of Lhuillier’s gowns will end up on the red carpet. “I was definitely taking mental pictures of what I’ll be requesting soon. I can’t wait to see who’s going to wear that red gown—somebody’s going to wear it to the Oscars, I just can’t wait to see who!”

    Today, our Glam Cam focuses on Jamaica and my visit with DivaDaPopRock.  If you’re craving an island vacation, cruise on over to her suite.  This medoll uses pops of color to brighten her space. Laid back and cool, her style is an homage to individualism with a reggae beat.

    he usual suspects hang out backstage before Alexander Wang’s show—Natasha Poly, Liu Wen, Joan Smalls, Karmen Pedaru, Ruby Aldridge—but this time, there’s a new face in the mix: Gisele Bündchen. “I think Alexander is a wonderful designer—I’ve always loved his clothes,” says Bündchen, as a Redken hairstylist readies her tresses. “And he couldn’t be a nicer guy, so I’m happy to be here, supporting him—you always want to do things for people who are nice.” Bündchen says being in Wang’s show almost feels like homecoming: “It’s great to be walking with girls I walked with 10 or 15 years ago. It’s just like a reunion! We have Shalom [Harlow], Frankie [Rayder], Carmen [Kass]—it’s so fun to see everyone again.” Besides old friends, Bündchen also welcomes the adrenaline rush. “You get that sensation of ‘ahhhh!’ when you haven’t done a show in awhile,” she says, adding with a laugh, “I don’t know if I’ll make it because I have these really tall boots. It’s a challenge to walk in them, and it’s a pretty long runway!” But what about all those Victoria’s Secret shows—and the Givenchy show she walked in last season? “These boots aren’t anything like what I wore for those!” insists Bündchen. “I wear flat shoes all the time now, so it’s a lot harder for me to walk in super-high heels.” Harlow, another surprise model at Wang’s show, shares Bündchen’s nervous excitement. “My outfit is quietly sinister—there’s a lot of leather!” she exclaims. “But I’m happy to be here. Alexander has a great sense of theatrics, on top of an incredible amount of talent and charm. I love how the show is set up, and I’m just excited to be part of it and to feel that drama again.”

    Smile girls! Actress Ana Girardot, Katie White & Leigh Lezark front row at Kevork. Photo: Getty Images We caught up with Katie White of the Ting Tings this morning, front row at Kevork Kiledjian. The whole Fashion Week thing wasn’t quite what the first timer expected: “I didn’t realize that the shows were so short!” she said. White’s perfectly happy with the extra time though, she plans on spending the weekend putting that runway inspiration to good use. “Hopefully I’m going shopping today, because I never get the chance in New York—normally we just do a show here and then leave,” White explained, listing Opening Ceremony as one of the places she’s planing to visit today. It’s a smart idea; with most everyone else attending shows, it’s probably the quietest you’ll find the downtown boutique all year.

    Just three seasons in to her eponymous collection, 25-year-old Misha Nonoo is fresh off winning Fashion Group International’s Rising Star Award for women’s ready-to-wear. For fall, Nonoo worked with local New York tailors to realize a collection full of guipere lace pencil skirts, smart emerald cropped trousers, and inky peplum jackets. Manhattan-made the collection may be, but it’s an English sensibility that really informs the designer’s work. “Whilst growing up in London, I became acutely aware of the subtle differences that separate High Street brands from Savile Row tailoring,” Nonoo explained in the show notes. “I became fascinated with the quiet details that only the curious eye could see.” Paris, too, played a role this season. Nonoo cited the city and French actress Anouk Aimée as her starting points for the collection: “I’m just really captivated by [Aimée's] extraordinary beauty, and the way that French women dress—that really effortless elegance they have.” Appropriately enough, Nonoo is showing her collection for the first time during Paris Fashion Week this season. But she finds elegance in the New York woman, as well: “My woman is ageless, she’s very discerning, and she has a great sense of self. She really values style over trend. Olivia Palermo was here earlier this morning, actually, and I think her sense of style is great. Her kind of look embodies that.”
