Models wait outside during a walkthrough before the Edun Spring 2011 collection show during New York Fashion Week on Saturday, Sept. 11.
Although I've never attended New York Fashion Week, the designers' shows always seem to be so polished and for lack of a better word, fabulous. While there are frequently pictures of make-up and hair being done backstage, I don't think I've ever noticed an alley being used as the backstage area. And could somebody get the girl on the right some shoes that fit? Ouch.
