New York Fashion Week is next week, so we’ve gathered some great minds to help you get your head in the game. It’s the New York Fashion Week Pre-Game Extravaganza! Guests in this episode include Fashion Unfiltered founder and editor Katharine Zarrella, Decoded Fashion founder Liz Bacelar, ace runway photographer Udor (Instagram), and guest host Cathy Schepis.

Is it getting big, or just buzz? Why aren’t there more top customers at the shows? All this and more, in our New York Fashion Week Pre-Game Extravaganza!
