Tumblr Tuesday, Fashion Week Edition
New York City, September 9-16, 2010

Fashionistas in extremely dangerous high heels are literally tripping all over the city as New York Fashion Week currently hits its, uh, stride. This glorious event happens twice every year and brings the world’s finest and most cutting-edge designers together to display their latest creations. What follows are some Tumblr blogs celebrating the haute couture, the prêt-à-porter, and the falling models.

Fashion Week Live from MAC & Milk invites everyone to participate in this live cell phone project called “Phone Tag” to promote all of the week’s events.

Sara Zucker is an independent fashion blogger who works in marketing and is covering Fashion Week from inside the shows.

What I Wore is Jessica Quirk’s personal style blog. She takes pictures of herself nearly every day and loves vintage inspired clothes.

DesignerSocial is a crew of designers, editors, and fashion peeps who throw down on the industry and each other.

LB TUMBLR is the official Tumblr blog for Lookbook.nu, an international social experiment in style.

Visit the Fashion category of the Tumblr Directory to find many, many more!

Name Mike Mitchell’s Tumblr of Amazing Things
Location Los Angeles
First post August 2009

Freelance illustrator Mike Mitchell is perhaps best known for his “I’m with Coco” poster, but it’s his take on the universal “Viking riding a unicorn in space with lightning-emitting AK-47” concept that truly resonates with us. With a focus on pop culture and the utterly ridiculous, Mike posts his original works, the works of his friends and influences, and the things that make him laugh. He blew up the internet last week after receiving a thank-you note from comedian Zach Galifianakis for creating a splendid portrait. Mike lives in LA with his wife, Lauren, and various pets named Auggie, Belly, Emo, and Peeka.

Name Kyoko Has a Blog
Location Maryland
First post March 2009

Kyoko Escamilla is a photographer, crafter, and apple farmer born and raised in Nagasaki, Japan. From an early age, she’s been passionate about comics and superheroes. Thanks to them, she learned english, heroism, and the fact that not everyone can pull off the cape look. “Superheroes were my first set of friends,” she says. Every weekend, she sells her knitted hats, original photos, and apples at the local farmer’s market. Kyoko has dogs named Bo, Rufio, Tink, Lux, Mowgli, and Theodore Bear. She can juggle, enjoys magic, and is better at Call of Duty: Black Ops than you are.
