Fashion Week here in New York is almost more about the parties, the bold-faced shenanigans in gossip pages and, well, more parties than it is about the actual clothing on the runway. My favorite part, though, is all the music that gets played at different designers' shows. It's kind of a way to tell what's hot right now, what's clicking, what seems to be cutting through the noise. Whatever the hot young models and designers are digging is often a lot different from what I'm digesting on the music blogs, and I enjoy that sort of dichotomy.
For the convenience of those of us who didn't get into the tents, the folks at Vanity Fair compiled a list of what was played in Bryant Park last month: lots of Santogold, lots of Lykke Li, lots of Ting Tings, lots of Brazilian Girls. And even some Gershwin!
And because she seemed to be so popular, this seems like a good opportunity to share this little interview with Santogold about her love of music and fashion.
