An Inside Look at the Life of a Model

Don't hate the models of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week because they're beautiful. Or because they get to recharge in the Model Lounge of the Gansevoort Park Avenue South. Or because they get chauffeured around in the new Porsche Panamera. If you think you can stand a look, grab a behind-the-scenes peek at what's making their tough lives a little easier here.

Fashion Week is Here!

And we're loving it! Herewith, some of our favorite looks (and celebs!) from the shows so far.

Much more to come, including our episode covering last night's Fashion's Night Out.
