Shock me like an electric eel


I'm one of those people who hates being the last to know things, but that seems to be how it plays out for me in most cases. Today while checking out one of my new favorite fashion sites, I found this little tidbit of info:

"Every year, twice a year, Henri Bendel holds an “open-see” basically a big old open casting call, fashion and beauty style. If you’re looking for your big break (Anna Sui and Todd Oldham got theirs here), the next one is happening this Friday, October 23rd.

Just be prepared to wait in a long-ass line. The buyers will be seeing prospective designers starting at 9 am on a first come, first serve basis, and you must be in line by noon to have a shot.

They are currently looking for merchandise for Spring 2010 in all the categories offered up at the story—from cosmetics and fragrance to bags, belts, hair accessories, and jewelry. Even gift-y items are fair game but leave your men’s and women’s apparel and shoe designs at home.

For more info go here or call 212-904-7992"

OMGeezers! How could I have gone this long without knowing about this? It is now my personal goal in life to take on this opportunity!
