A Tourist at NYC Fashion Week
The unmistakable bob of Anna Wintour, editor of Vogue. She's always in a prime position along the front row; no one ever tires of taking her picture. All photos by Ben Schott.
NEW YORK CITY – Below are some of the photographs I took to accompany a Fashion Week Miscellany I wrote for the New York Times. The pictures were taken backstage and during rehearsals at the Jason Wu show on September 7, 2012. It was my first foray into the universe of the shows.
