here's the rub: i found out about Miami International Fashion Week a few days ago and decided that I had to go. i told some of my friends and we made plans. i go online to buy tickets and realize now that everything is sold out. the horror! so i thought my plans had fallen through, but i decided to still go to miami to see if anyone was selling.
my fiance and i were walking around the event looking at the designer sample sale and taking photos. a girl says to me something like, "this is one of the designers. you should pay attention to her show tonight." i told her that we, unfortunately, didn't have any tickets. then she said, "really? i'll get you tickets."
turns out, this girl was a publicist so she gave us two tickets for the evening show. what luck! talk about being in the right place at the right time.
designers for the evening showcase on saturday included Pia Gladys Perey, Fammee, Leny G and Michelle Salins. here are some photos from the night:
i apologize in advance for my crappy camera!
