American fashionistas have October 10th inked and highlighted in their diaries: Why? That’s the day that Topshop will open on Broadway in SoHo. That means that the New York fashion editors who usually spend most of London Fashion Week in September shopping in ToSho Oxford Circus have only a scant month in Europe to wear their bargains.
After all, the show season ends in Paris on October 6th, so they’ve got four days to wear their new purchases in New York, before consigning them to their assistants.
It’s one thing wearing Topshop when you can only buy it in Europe, but which fashion maven wants to be seen in the same dress as the bridge & tunnel crowd, darling?
