FASHION WEEK - DAY 1

Report Card: B

Welcome to Fashion Week, Charleston! A time when the fashion-daring, beautiful, trendy, and Mary-Kate-inspired men and women come out of the wood works to see and be seen. Of course we’ll be there every night and tell you like it is.

The opening night of Fashion Week gets a B grade from the Go’Diva Sisters. The crowd and ambiance were an A+… there must have been nearly 2,000 hipsters in attendance and the scene, complete with dark blue lighting, glistening disco balls, and a Torch-like DJ, was something straight out of New York or LA.

The show itself gets a C. The best in show was Stylexchange. We never heard of them before last night, but their show was inventive and daring, featuring woman in billowing mowhawks, jeans attached at the leg with diamond links, and hot men in speedos (hey, we’re there for a show!) The last thing I want to see at Fashion Week is my old black cotton tube dress strutting down the runway. Listen up stores: you are in FASHION WEEK. Put on a SHOW.

T minus one hour until night 2…
