In case you don't know what Coterie is, it's basically a 3-day convention for all the brands that don't show at fashion week. So basically 50,000 fashion bitches crammed into the Javits center, where the line for the bathroom was always longer than the line for lunch.
This event was way worse than fashion week because it basically made fun of itself and I just laughed and pointed, but for all those fortunate enough to be free of the fashion world this weekend, I took mental note of some ridiculous things people said to me during the event for you to enjoy.
"I want to get my daughter a New York souvenir, like children's makeup or something"
"Bagels are like, five pieces of bread"
"Wouldn't this be great for a bat mitzvah?"
"This top only comes in Canyon and Picasso Aztec"*
"I have to give up something for lent, I was thinking- mani/pedis?"
"We had to walk like five blocks for a cab!"
"You don't own an iPad?!"
"I can't find my phone but it's okay, I wanted a new one anyway"
"Good thing I brought flats" (woman in 6" heels who changed into 3" heels)
"I can't show my midriff, I'm 37" (said by a woman in a miniskirt and a low cut top)
"These shoes were on sale for $550 so I bought 4 pairs"
"I live off the G train" "what's that?"
"She's never had a job but she's like a really hard worker"
*I have to admit, I was the one who had to say this, but those really were the names of the navajo printed silk blouses.
