As much as we love Fashion Week, anyone who has ever been to the shows will tell you that it’s not an easy stroll down the tents. Instead, you have to contend with late start times, harried ticket scanners, dying electronics (due to lack of outlets at Lincoln Center/Eyebeam), and a myriad of other FW-related crises. In that spirit, we’re covering this season’s Fashion Week with YOU in mind, sending our intrepid reporters out to cover the important aspects of the shows…well, the ones that have nothing to do with the clothes.

Comments: With the cold winter chill in the air, ushers and ticket scanners piled people in to The McKittrick Hotel. As coats and hats were removed, ticket scanners maneuvered their way to each of the guests. Despite the craziness of the scene, each ticket usher and scanner was helpful and happy.
3. Attention to detail (Gift bags, runway set, clothes):
