Fashion Week warmup exercise

January 31st, 2008, 5:34 pm · Post a Comment · posted by Sam Mittelsteadt

So, before the glut of New York, Milan and Paris fall fashion shows begins, here’s a little warm-up exercise to get you in shape. Decide if each photo after the jump is from a show in Rome or Berlin….

That’s right — this is easy: the Germans vs. the Italians.

How to play : (1) Click on each thumbnail to call it up in a larger window. (2) To make sure you’re right, highlight the text under each thumbnail to learn the city.
