Alright, so listen up, y’all. I’m gonna tell ya ’bout this… this… whatchamacallit… NYFW Presley Oldham thing. Sounds fancy, right? Don’t know much about it myself, but I heard some folks talkin’, and I pieced it together, ya know?
So, this Presley Oldham fella, he’s a big deal in the… the… fashion world, I guess. He makes shiny stuff, like jewelry and now shoes, too. Imagine that! Shoes! Back in my day, shoes were just shoes, kept your feet outta the mud. Now they’re all fancy-schmancy. Anyway, this fella, he just had his big show, or a “presentation,” they called it, at somethin’ called New York Fashion Week. That’s in the big city, ya know, where all them skyscrapers are. Never been there myself, too much hustle and bustle for this ol’ gal.
Now, this Fashion Week thing, it’s a big to-do. Happens twice a year, they say. All sorts of designers showin’ off their clothes and whatnots. It’s like a fancy dress-up party, only bigger and… well, fancier. And get this, it’s hard to even get in! Even them skinny models, they don’t always get picked. It’s cutthroat, I tell ya, cutthroat! Makes me think of butcherin’ chickens back on the farm, gotta be quick and precise.
Presley, he’s a newbie at this Fashion Week thing, a “debut” they called it. But he’s already makin’ waves, I hear. Partnered up with some shoe folks from far away, “Portuguese heritage brand” they said, sounded foreign. Makin’ shoes together now. Guess that’s how ya make it big in the city, teamin’ up with others.
- So, first off, he makes jewelry. Shiny stuff, like I said.
- Then he goes and does this big show, presentation thingy, in New York.
- Now he’s got shoes, too. Man’s busy, that’s for sure.
I saw some pictures, too. Folks all dressed up in clothes I wouldn’t be caught dead in. All them colors and patterns, makes my head spin. But I guess that’s what they like in the city. Different strokes for different folks, as they say. Me? I like a good, sturdy pair of overalls and a comfortable shirt. Can’t be fussin’ with all them frills and laces, got work to do, ya know? Gotta tend to the garden, feed the chickens… life don’t stop for fashion, let me tell ya.
And this Fashion Week, it ain’t just for lookin’ pretty. It’s serious business. People come from all over to buy them clothes and shoes and jewelry. Big money involved, I reckon. Probably more money than I’ll ever see in my whole life. But that’s alright. I got my garden, my chickens, and the peace and quiet of the countryside. That’s enough for me.
So, that’s the gist of it, this NYFW Presley Oldham thing. A fella makin’ fancy stuff, showin’ it off in the big city, and tryin’ to make a name for himself. Good for him, I say. Takes all kinds to make the world go ’round. And who knows, maybe someday I’ll see one of them fancy shoes walkin’ down my dusty road. Probably won’t, but it’s fun to think about.
This whole fashion business, it’s a different world from mine. But I guess everyone’s gotta hustle, whether you’re makin’ jewelry or growin’ tomatoes. And as long as folks are happy with what they’re doin’, that’s all that matters, right?
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them chickens. They’re probably wonderin’ where I got off to, ramblin’ on about fashion and such.
