Fashion Week Diaries: Lindsay Loved Terexov … But I Didn’t See Her

September 9, 2008 by SheFindsCatesby

Forgive me SheFinds readers, for I have sinned. I failed to see Lindsay Lohan at yesterday's Terexov runway show. There was a small hullabaloo before it began–cameras flashing, a huddled group entering, some hushed whispering in the crowd–and I heard LiLo's name thrown around. Then the lights dropped, the music pumped, and for the life of me I just couldn't see her!

The woman was sitting near me (no, I'm not in this picture, alas), and I couldn't take my eyes off her getup. Or maybe it was just the pink-and-green hat that was blocking my view. In any case, I wouldn't know where to find clothes like this, nor would I recommend wearing them, so I'm just going to leave you with her image (and not a link to look like her).
