Do You Know Where You Are?


Uptown vs. Downtown


Well, first things first... The Jetset duo is back in Firenze, Italia to shake up Eurostar First-Class, hit the Roberto Cavalli Cafe, and gather footage from Milano Fashion Week. Classes start soon, so there is much a fashion student must do before he or she is swamped with those Retail Buying projects. Namely, one should send loads fashion information and opinions out into the World Wide Web and into the computers of fashionistas everywhere. Besides, what dispute could be better to dissect on the Jetset Fashion Blog than the age-long battle between uptown and downtown fashions.




Uptown


Look: Polished, lady-like, and always groomed.


Motto: "Look in the mirror before you leave the house and take off one accessory." -Coco Chanel


Designers: Oscar de la Renta, Carolina Herrera, Chanel, Diane von Furstenberg, Micheal Kors


Beware: Don't become too comfortable with one particular look. Branch out!






Downtown


Look: Young Hollywood, edgy, and always different.


Motto: "Anything goes." -Heatherette


Designers: Betsey Johnson, Anna Sui, Heatherette, Marc by Marc


Beware: Don't try to this style by copying other fashionistas who have seemed to mastered downtown chic. That defeats the purpose of this whatever attitude. It's all confidence

New York Fashion Week starts February 2nd!
