Smaller is better? Believe it: this fashion season, everything's been downsized, from L'Oreal gift bags containing a single, travel-sized hair spray (minimalism?) to the teeny-tiny LG laptops in the Media Lounge—wait, make that "Filing Room." For journos surviving on Kit Kat Singles and huddling around mini-screens, it all feels a bit like a visual gag.

"Slimmed down" is rather an understatement, if you (like the rest of our city's glitterati) are talking about the super-light schedule of LG Fashion Week (Beauty by L'Oreal), the newly and unwieldily named celebration of local style. Seriously, this schedule needs to eat a sandwich. Usually we'd be dying for a turkey-and-swiss ourselves by this time on Day One; instead, we're eating a sixth bowl of cereal and watching nailpolish dry. The first—and last—show of Day One isn't until tonight, after Holt Renfrew's annual cocktail party (a mecca for media and other shmoozehounds). And the rest of Fashion Week: Recession Edition is busier but hardly strenuous.
