Crowd control

The street is empty on the walk home. Good. The whole night was crowded. The pit was full, the seats were taken, the crowd spilled onto each side of the runway. It was the way it always is.

The shows were Pink Tartan and Joe Fresh, which draw numbers. But the latest last-minute venue the FDCC has found is huge. We didn’t have to sweat.

The tape spins, the quotes go down, the take-out is devoured. We bring cups of tea downstairs; watch the quiet night. The words: fashion week continues until April 1 finish the copy. The clock blinks 3:30, April 1. The story goes in.

Pink Tartan begins with violin
The photographers didn't know his name, but he used his MuchMusic mic as a weapon
Sarah of Pink Tartan, is all biz-ness
it ends with a bouquet of white flowers.
