Mercedes Benz Fashion Week for Spring 2012 begins in just a few weeks. IMG has released the schedule, and there will be some new faces, such as J Crew, at the tents this September. I will be there taking notes, and taking photos. I hope you will bookmark this website, or subsscribe to the Advice Sisters RSS feed, and join me as the week, unfolds. Every year there is something new and exciting, something noteworthy, sometimes, something tragic (eg. Alexander McQueen’s death last season). No matter what happens, Fashion Week is always a a wild ride! Here’s teh schedule as it currently stands. For more information visit the IMG WebSite: http://www.mbfashionweek.com/ To see more of my fashion week photos from seasons past, visit www.alisonblackman.info
