We’ve been getting a lot of questions from designers and media who are wondering how Fashion Indie Week Brooklyn compares to Brooklyn Fashion Weak{end}. We’ve decided to provide 15 ways in which our event kicks buttocks, while other Brooklyn based runway shows fail to impress. Hell folks, fashion is war and we’re always ready for battle…
  1. Because 8 > 2.
  2. Because Fashion Indie rocks out harder than Amy Winehouse. We realize that might not be a good thing considering the emphysema thing but oxygen tanks are totally the next TrendSpark.
  3. Because our celebrity appearances will be better than Paulie Shore and the “Oh Face Guy” from Office Space.
  4. Because our models like to party. Like “Kate Moss” party, not “lame-ass second cousin who you never talk to who insists on inviting you to his graduation party” party.
  5. Because Fashion Indie encourages scenarios in which you wake up belligerent after a night of sake bombs with a used Durex in your hand laying next to that random chick you were eyeing on the runway the night before.

6. Because Fashion Indie sees no shame in choreographed dance breaks to “Too Legit Too Quit”.
7. Because Fashion Indie Week Brooklyn is actually taking place during New York Fashion Week, you know that time of year when every editor and buyer in the known universe is in NYC.

You don’t mess with this brand of bad-ass.
8. Because Fashion Indie’s  designers are more badass than Steven Segal’s ponytail, Chuck Norris’ beard and Jean-Claude Van Damme’s lack of acting ability combined.
9. Because Brooklyn Fashion Week{end} satisfies less than a happy ending from a one-armed cavedweller from Narnia. See what I did there. It’s called Family Guy humor. 
10. Because Brooklyn Fashion Week{end} is going to get as much coverage as a Patrick Swayze bowel movement.
11. Because Fashion Indie Week Brooklyn is going to have more downloads than naked Miley Cyrus pictures.

12. Fashion Indie Week Brooklyn = Beyonce |  Brooklyn Fashion Week{end} = that two member of Destiny’s Child that got replaced by Michelle.
13. Because if Brooklyn Fashion Week{end} was a girl you’d paper bag her.=
14. Because Fashion Indie Weekend will get you laid. Corey promises… 15 Reasons Why Fashion Indie Week Brooklyn Is Going to Make Brooklyn Fashion Week{end} Seem Like the Sequel to Glitter
15. Because Daniel Saynt will be allowing Fashion Indie Week Brooklyn guests to take bodyshots off his rock solid abs.

 Abs may appear more hardcore in person.
