Last Saturday was the Jeremy Scott meet and greet at the adidas Originals store in Soho. I had to opportunity to go support Jeremy and rock pieces of the new Spring collection. I was totally nervous at first about standing around all day in some spandex shorts with my junk hanging out but once I put them on I realized it wasn’t that bad and I was obsessed with my outfit. #thepowerofjeremyscott
The event was DJ’d by Sky Ferreira who was absolutely adorable and kept the party moving. The other models for the day were Michelle Salem, Matt Mazur, and Frankie Sharp who are some of the chillest people I’ve ever met.
It was amazing and inspiring to see the diversity of the crowd. There were people there from every walk of life, including a few parents waiting on line with their children who couldn’t have been more than 10. It was cool to see how Jeremy and his designs cross all types of social borders and everyone was there for the love of it all. The event lasted a little over two hours and because I wasn’t on the side of the line waiting to get in, I got to see a different side of Jeremy. He really is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. He noticeably spent time with each of his fans and really paid attention to what they had to say to him. As a fan myself, seeing that – I have so much more respect for him as a person and as a designer because that was a LONG day and he was always on.
The day was amazing, and we got to keep our outfits. The American Flag and the American Flag Wings 2.0 shoes were definitely my top two favorite pieces in the collection, so your boy lucked out.
