Now that New York Fashion Week is over, it’s time to reflect, reevaluate and recuperate. My fellow editors and I dumped out the contents of our bags to document our Fashion Week experience, or at least what we remember that wasn’t wiped out by excessive drinking and turning.

Villionaire, Richie Rich‘s Fall 2011 fashion extravaganza — for it was much more than a show — was a wild romp through Wonderland with a pit stop over in the East Village. Tinsley Mortimer opened, JWOWW closed and somewhere along the way Johnny Weir skated out (figuratively) in what looked like a loincloth. But at the center of this three ring fashion circus were the clothes, a fun, wearable collection heavily inspired by the glamour of the 30s and 40s.

Though Heatherette is all but ancient history, Richie Rich is still a glam club kid at heart. Amidst a sea of models – bones and high ponytails from wall to ceiling – I met up with the designer and his design director Angelo Lambrou during a casting call for Richie’s runway show. This will be his second collection for his eponymous label and will be held at the Hammerstein Ballroom on February 10th at 9 pm. Proceeds will go to benefit two causes very close to Richie’s sequined heart: DoSomething.org and Cookies for Kids’ Cancer. We discussed Richie’s fabulous inspirations, his fabulous friends and the first time he met Madonna. Which was, you guessed it, fabulous.

Richie’s desire to introduce his new vision of fashion to the fresh faces taking over led him to skip the traditional route of only inviting the “status quo” and embrace the hundreds of fashion bloggers taking the industry by storm.
“Kitten’s are the new Cougar!!! The voice of many passionate fashion kids from around the world is really what matters to me, and causes change.” says Richie.
“PopLuxe is more than just a fashion collection, it’s the idea that pop culture and those who surround themselves around it are influencing what the new luxury will be. I want to surround myself with people who emulate this idea and who better than all the little kittens blogging their daily fashion obsessions on the web.”
Bloggers who want to attend Richie Rich’s Lincoln Center fashion show are being asked to visit LookBooks.com/RichieRich for details on how to reserve a seat at what will surely be one of fashion weeks most blogged about events.

In the Fashion Indie offices, when we here the words “sex tape” we get giddy with excitement. Since there has been a lack of them coming out recently, we took it upon ourselves to compile our favorite couples we would like to see “getting busy.”
