Fashion Week Day 2

Part of the fun of Fashion Week is being surrounded by some of the more, um, unusual and out there folks who eat, sleep and breathe fashion.
To them, fashion is performance art and Fashion Week is their time to really "perform."
Who are these people?
Some are stylists. Some consider themselves to be designers. And some are just what we call "regulars," the people who are just part of the scene.
Of course, since these personalities come every day in a different, stop-the-presses outfit (and yes, sometimes they change outfits during the day), we'll give you a glimpse of this unique fashion show from time to time.
Here are just two of the many who are regulars to the Fashion Week scene.


Prince Williams 3rd
Bill Boiz is his real name. But he goes by Prince Williams 3rd. I don't know why. No, he's not related to the Queen. But this chap is a regular and is quite fond of plaids and formal wear. I've never seen him without a hat and cane. And take note of the shoes. Now that's what we call dapper!



Rosemary Ponzo
Rosemary is a stylist and bon vivant of the fashion world. This is a lady who truly knows how to make an entrance, greeting everyone with a raspy greeting. I should also add that she's a very personable young lady and was very kind to a group of students from Red Bank Regional HS who visited Fashion Week a couple of years ago. Consider that some people wouldn't give a group of high school kids the time of day.
