This is how it begins: a pristine, empty runway, several rows of spotless seats. Hours later, this room will be jam-packed with editors and buyers, notebooks propped on their slender knees, and celebrities angling to have their picture taken by the swarm of photographers jockeying for position.

Fashion Week happens only twice a year, which leaves plenty of time for anticipation.
