But this wasn't a party party.
This was one of Britain's biggest brands, Burberry, shunning the catwalk
completely for the first time in years, choosing to throw a so called
"fash bash" instead.
Around 40 designers are following suit -- it would appear that catwalks
have become so "last year."
Not so quick, say the experts:
SOT: HILLARY ALEXANDER, FASHION WRITER
PEOPLE WHO GO TO CATWALK SHOWS ARE THE BUYERS AND THE PRESS, AND
SOMETIMES THEY ARE FRIENDS OF THE DESIGNERS. AND THE PEOPLE WHO GO TO
THE PARTIES ARE JUST THE HANGERS ON.
But when the "hangers on" are celebrity fashionistas, the end results
are the same for designers -- pretty people, plus PUBLICITY equals
sales. What everyone with a passion for fashion has always known.

But the the Astros just hung around, and in the 7th inning pinch hitter Jose Viscaino drove in both runs with a single to put Houston in front to stay 2-to-1.
