Fashion shows rarely start on time, and delays of about twenty or thirty minutes are not unusual. And despite all the planning and preparation in advance, the pressure, and the chaos of all sorts of parts, most fashion shows only last 10 to 15 minutes, showcasing 20 to 40 looks.

Therefore, Li Jie didn't need to be in a hurry at all, he walked to the seat leisurely, and it was not even the scheduled opening time yet, looking at the busy backstage, it was estimated that it would not start without half an hour.

The seating arrangement of the show is very particular, which fully tests the organizer's show skills and diplomatic skills. The presence of celebrities in the audience can greatly increase the reputation of the designer, and it can also make the fashion show more media coverage. For true connoisseurs, only the first three rows of seats are the most noteworthy. The first row is reserved for important guests – perhaps that's why designers prefer the U-shape, which allows for more front seats; The neighbors of important people should also be people of equal status, and even higher status than the other; Therefore, photographers often use the front row of the audience as a subject, which is one of the integral parts of the catwalk.

V.V.I.P. will be seated in the best seats in the first row, such as two-thirds of the way out at the back of the catwalk. This is a good location to allow plenty of time to see the front and back of each garment. Less important members of the editorial or buying team would be placed in the second or third row, but the seats at the back would be no different from the barren land of the Arctic desert, and no one could tolerate being placed in that position. Don't be surprised if you see someone at a fashion show who is unhappy with the organizer's location, asks for their position to move forward, and then gets angry and walks away, because it's not uncommon. There will even be some guests who are not important enough to sneak up on the empty seats in the front row before the catwalk starts.

So you see, no matter how glamorous the fashion celebrity world is, when the veil is lifted, it will look vulgar and ordinary, even ugly. But people are still happy and relishing, outside the circle desperately want to squeeze into the circle, and inside the circle desperately want to squeeze into the center, this is the eternal indelible ** and vanity at work.

Of course, the organizer arranged the best position for Li Jie, and he should not be slack off in terms of popularity and identity. The seats in the show are often only letters and numbers, and it is difficult to know what kind of important people will appear in the front row, which can also avoid the embarrassment caused by the absence of famous people. So when Li Jie sat down, he saw a face next to him with a little surprise and astonishment - it seemed that he was still a little weak-hearted, maybe because he had just said some bad things behind his back.

"Hello, Miss Swift." Li Jie naturally smiled and said hello to the young world's best-selling singer.

"Oh, hello, Mr. Lee." Taylor Swift quickly adjusted his mood and smiled sweetly, but his eyes were still rolling and he didn't know what was going on in his mind.

Li Jie did not continue to pull the other party to talk, but simply turned his head again, looked around slightly, at this time most of the seats were already full, in addition to Taylor next to him, he also saw a lot of familiar faces, including Tom Cruise, Gwyneth Paltrow, Paris? Hilton and Rihanna and other celebrities in the eyes of the media, and even some Chinese stars who can or can't be named by Li Jie, not to mention those ITGIRLS and fashion bloggers, these are all social media celebrities who have emerged with the rise of social media Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. It also posted real-time pictures of celebrities sitting in the front row and their outfits.

Sitting to the right of Li Jie is a woman with short blond bangs, and although she is not familiar with the media world, Li Jie still recognizes the face in front of her - Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of Vogue magazine in the United States, and the female editor of the movie "The Devil Wears Prada" (The Devil in Fashion), who also holds the title of Dame and was awarded the Order of the Non-commissioned Officer of the British Empire.

"It was a pleasure to meet you, Sir Wintour." Li Jie took the initiative to greet her and joked with a bit of humility. "Frankly, I'm a little nervous, and I hope I'm not dressed so badly that I let you go."

Anna Wintour is the undisputed big name, and many designers even postpone her runway time because of her tardiness, which shows her status in the fashion industry.

"Of course not, Bruce." Anna Wintour clearly recognized him, and although time had left its mark on her face, it could not hide that charm.

"With your look, whatever you wear is fashionable." She smiled appreciatively, with shallow crow's feet at the corners of her eyes, looking very kind, and without the coldness and meanness of a female devil.

"Flattered, I didn't expect to get such a high evaluation from you." The sedan chair was carried by everyone, and Li Jie also reciprocated the favor.

"No, no, Bruce, I'm serious, if you're interested in taking a photo shoot for my magazine, I can leave you a cover just for you." Anna Wintour scrutinizes Lee Kit with a professional eye, and it seems that there is more than just politeness. In her opinion, Li Jie not only has a handsome appearance and a perfect figure, but also has deep eyes and excellent temperament that are real treasures, even if he does not mention his popularity, he can fully support a series of super-standard fashion blockbusters.

"If I have time, I'll think about it seriously." Li Jie also put away his smile and replied seriously.

"Vogue", which was founded in 1892, is a fashion magazine with a long history and wide respect in the world, and is even known as the "fashion bible" in the United States. So it was a great honor to receive a personal invitation from Anna Wintour.

"Very well, Bruce, please contact me, I'll keep the page for you." Anna Wintour is happy from the bottom of her heart, and people like her who truly love fashion will be very happy to see Li Jie as if they were seeing a piece of exquisite jade, and will be very dedicated to creating the perfect piece.

At this time, the show has entered the final stage of intense preparation, and it is obvious that it is about to start immediately. Anna still warmly pulled Li Jie to chat about fashion topics, he was also very modest and patiently listening, and did not pretend to be mysterious or did not know how to understand, but occasionally one or two answers or interjections could make the other party's eyes shine, and the conversation between the two was unexpectedly harmonious, and Anna also took the initiative to exchange contact information with him.

The cameramen of the show have already taken their seats, and in addition to tabloid reporters, there are also front-row character cameramen and fashion videographers. And with the increasing demand for webcasts and online video clips, so has the number of videographers at Fashion Week. These people are almost always filming not only the catwalk scenes, but also the scenes, including celebrities like Li Jie, and they will also dress up carefully and maintain good manners at all times.

Some people may find it tiring, but for celebrities, it's the only way to maintain exposure, and even to some extent they enjoy the process. New York Fashion Week is like a giant ball of light, attracting well-known and unknown figures from all over the world, whether it is to chase fashion or gain exposure, they don't want to miss the event. And aside from the designer's clothing launches and catwalks, the whole fashion week itself is a huge show.
