Anyway, I had my camera in tow and for the first time ever and snapped a few shots of the inside of the Mart, some showrooms and a few runway shows. Most of the vendors are really secretive about their designs, so I had to really sensor what I shot, but thought it would be fun to give you a feel for what it's like there. We also got a little silly, had plenty of free drinks (margaritas seemed to be the trend this year ;)) and schmoozed with the vendor owners and designers.
BTW, prints are gonna be HOT this year!! ;)
