HOUGHTON NEW YORK FASHION WEEK AFTERPARTY, NYFW TRIBECA GRAND PARTIES. MEINTO: LOCAL, DESIGNER CLOTHING SHOP.
My NY Fashion Week coverage continues, and will for some time — I edited about 250 photos from this trip alone! Keep reading for my “glam punk opera” adventure with Yukiro. (Above shot by Louie Metzner.)
First, a shoutout to Meinto.com. The online boutique brings together small selections from local designers, making them available worldwide. I’m all about supporting indie labels, and Meinto has a great eye for unique and well-made pieces.
It’s hard to pick my favorites from more than 2500 items. For a rocker-Gothic look: fleur de lis tote, white leather jacket, grey pearl rosary necklace, open-toed studded shoes, and long black skirt.
Meinto is currently holding a contest for a $1000 shopping spree; you can enter via their Facebook. Go for it!
In New York City, Yukiro and I were hosted by the space-themed hotel, Yotel. Needless to say, it suited us to a T. We can’t wait to show you the fun video we made.
Many fashion week bashes occur at the Tribeca Grand Hotel. We went for the Houghton afterparty.
Skeleton dress: gifted by Kreepsville 666 (who also conceived the butcher knife purse; more pics soon.)
Yukiro’s flower clips: gifted by the lovely Angelica Brigade
We enjoyed cavorting with the Roma!, a glam-opera band that embraces decadence and fantastical facial hair.
What do you think of our outfits and makeup at this event? Where are your favorite places to shop online, for unique clothing?

La Carmina, you’re looking thinner in these pictures. Have you lost weight? or maybe it’s just the clothes you are wearing.
Hmm it’s probably the clothes and angle.. we ate a ton of pad thai in NYC! :)
