Contrary to popular belief, Fashion Week is so not the time to be fashionably late. In fact, opting for embarrassingly early is usually your best bet, especially at a high-profile event. There were a few instances when I was first in line for the doors that hadn't even opened yet but by the time I went out for my first cigarette break, I had already had full and unobstructed access to the bar, photo booth, and gift bags. I also managed to avoid the psychotic line of would-be crashers.
