AROUND TOWN
Walking a cold catwalk
Hats off (and scarfs on) for Fashion Week rooftop show
BY TEQUILA MINSKY
It wasn’t quite the weather Soho’s
Flying Solo fashion boutique
was hoping for, but snow and a
cold damp afternoon did not stop
the outdoor six scheduled shows
held on the rooftop at Howard and
Broadway in Soho on Feb. 13.
Prior to day’s fi rst show at 11
a.m., snow was shoveled from the
runway as it continued to fall.
Models baring much skin
walked through snow fl urries navigating
the slick laminate surface.
Masked press and guests, bundled
in scarves and gloves, braved the
challenging weather in the outdoor
COVID safer environment.
The second fl oor provided for
smoozing and interviews, also
weather-prone, on its outdoor plaza—
hot whiskey cocktails fueled
the ambiance.
