ah williamsburg. the mecca for wanna-be cools. i still can't quite figure out how such a seemingly small area encompasses so many youngsters that are too hip for their own good. it boggles the mind.
last night was my friend's benefit fashion show. it was for a good cause. support for the north brooklyn alliance, hosted by this cool store in williamsburg. needless to say it drew a rather interesting crowd. there were some of the strangest outfits imaginable. i just can't see how some one can look in the mirror wearing a small, weird shaped piece of fabric they call a dress, with their free-flowing tits all over the place, bad un-brushed hair, ugly old moccassin boots and think they look good. i guess it's that "i'm too cool for fashion" fashionista thing. or something. i don't get it.
even though some of the outfits were strange, the crowd was enthusiastic and full of energy, whooping it up and hollering for their friends' designs. and it wasn't your standard fashion show either. each designer came up with a routine for their models. it was more like a performance which was pretty fun. the acts ranged from song and dance numbers, to hoopers (yes ariel, hoopers!), acrobats, and strippers. and there were a few actual performers in between designers. my favorite was a woman who freakin rocked it! she did a strip tease that may be the best strip tease i've ever seen. first the dress came off, then the bra, then the pasties, then the underwear. as she strut around totally butt naked, she actually lip synced the rock song with her butt cheeks. then faced forward and lip synced with her "other" lips. i was dying. and although it sounds nasty, it was pretty rad.
the night ended at the after party at capone's (yes terra, the free pizza place!!). when you order a beer, you get a free delicious pizza. what a deal!! i chatted it up with a nice young french boy. a smarty stanford grad. and i'll just stop it right there. loving spring time in NYC! weeeeeee.........
