It's been a big week in the RUSSH offices, as we hurtle toward the printing of our upcoming March issue (we can't wait for you to devour it very soon), and take note of the outpouring of fashion content flowing steadily from New York Fashion Week. Whether it was Beyonce showing up to Luar's front row (to support her nephew who was walking), or Thom Browne's Edgar Allan Poe-inspired theatrical show, there's been plenty to soak up.
Closer to home, there's plenty of fashion news flowing too. Below, check out all the fashion news and moment you might have missed this week...
