If fall re-entry .. back to work and back to school ... has you stressed then Betsey Johnson's show is just the medicine you need.
"It's all about what I want to wear. It's kind of my smartest show yet," says Betsy Johnson.
Many of her front row fans agree ... stylists to celebs are mesmerized by the hot pink hair, swinging skirts and floral dresses skipping down the runway.
"It's the best goody bag ever!" jokes stylist Robert Verdi.
"Yes, that's why were are here -- whose show is this?" adds Phillip Bloch.
Everyone's a little loopy from all the hoopla. But Fern Mallis gets serious and makes a great point about Betsey's appeal...
"We are here because we love Betsey. She is the oldest, young designer in the industry and the youngest, old designer" she says.
As for the clothes, they are fun flared skirts, jumpsuits too and a spot of leopard.
"Betsy has been an inspiration to so many generations because she has always marched to the beat of her own drummer. She has a brilliant consistent way to communicate what she loves about fashion and she has followers," says Verdi.
"She has seen this industry evolve and change. She has done it all," says Phillip Bloch.
Girls ... get ready to dope up on frilly minis, mesh gowns and layers of organza -- better than popping prozac. Instant happiness.
"I am a huge fan of Betsey Johnson. I wore Betsey Johnson to my prom so I always go to her shows," says Adrienne Bailon.
Paris has always enjoyed a heavy dose of Betsey even when she was drinking out of a bottle.
"I love Betsey Johnson. I have been wearing her clothes since I was a little girl," says Hilton
For a final touch, make-up was a play between the neon wigs and metallic lips. Betsy, we are doing cartwheels with you ... !
