AS MUCH AS WE LOVE THEM | FASHION WEEK'S OVER-EXPOSED CELEBS

It's so strange that half the fun of Fashion Week is ogling the celebrities who attend. They have very little real business being there when you think about it, but seldom do weeks pop up on the calendar when so many opportunities for shameless self-promotion exist. This season we decided to honor the men and women who took the most advantage of Fashion Week's self-exposure opportunities. We left off well-known editors and buyers — anyone attending Fashion Week as part of his or her job. We also focused on fashion shows, rather than parties, but bear in mind the folks who made the most show rounds also hit the party circuit — appropriately, these individuals' omnipresence knew no bounds.
