THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION COULD BE LIKE FASHION WEEK


Next week's Democratic National Convention and the events surrounding it just might be to Denver what Fashion Week is to New York, Paris, London, or Milan. Fashionable celebrities like Ben Affleck, Spike Lee, Anne Hathaway, and Kerry Washington have confirmed their attendance; fashion-industry faves Kanye West and Cyndi Lauper will perform; and the Huffington Post's "Oasis" lounge will offer yoga, massage, and aromatherapy to delegates. Even New York Fashion Week doesn't have a lounge like that! (SMH at Mercedes-Benz.)
