New York Fugshion Week: Day 1

It had been years since we gave Leonor Varela a second thought — probably, in fact, almost a decade, since she was Cleopatra in that terrible TV movie starring Billy Zane (!!) as Mark Antony. And yet, in just our first hour at Fashion Week, we nearly saw too much of her:

I have no idea how, but despite this dress’s best efforts, nary a nip slipped. She’d get major points for this, had she not made it all the way out of her hotel and to the show without realizing her assets might be compromised. Also, she totally should have turned her head to the right, because as we realized later, gymnast Alicia Sacramone sat two seats down — and toting her newly minted Olympic silver medal. We are kicking ourselves that we didn’t find a way to fall into Alicia’s lap so that we could then accidentally touch it. Sigh. Jail would’ve been worth it.
