Paris Fashion Week is always quite a whirlwind, with editors bouncing around town from one show venue to the next and Kimye making as many dramatic appearances as possible. But what about the other members of the fashion biz? Because they’re in the mix as well, and just as busy. Like Suite 1521′s fashion curators, Kim Kassel and Lizzie Tisch, who are on the prowl for the next up-and-coming designer to feature in their appointment-only New York atelier. During their search, they’ve also become our roving reporters, snapping shots of the hautest pieces they see and giving us a peek at which full collections they just might pick up come Spring 2015. We’ll let these expert shoppers show you everything that went down on day two and three of their Parisian adventure…
