The weekend of New York Fashion Week is the unofficial “bring your
kids to the shows” day. It’s a status symbol, really, proving you’re
successful and cool enough to show up with an impromptu — albeit
miniature — plus-one, Jennifer Lopez style (bonus points if your daughter carries a tiny Chanel bag).
But if you’re a fading reality star who has enough trouble wrangling
show invitations to begin with, or if you’d just rather watch your kids
parade around in clothes instead of skinny models, why not hold your own
fashion show starring your own children instead? That way everyone can
marvel at your offspring’s cuteness with no distractions at all.
Enter “Kids Rock,” a fashion show that will be held at Grand Central Terminal on September 11, at 6 p.m. WWD reports
that the “models” will include Teddy, daughter of Kelly Bensimon;
Jeffrey Tarpley, son of Sherri Shepherd; Lil C, Jaden, Cyia, and Carter,
children of New York Yankee CC Sabathia; and Amar’e Jr., Assata and
Ar’e, children of New York Knick Amar’e Stoudemire. They’ll be “wearing
the latest trends,” says a spokesperson for Haddad Brands, which is
sponsoring the show. Stoudemire will “host,” and the labels represented
(Levi’s, Converse, Jordan, and Nike) will donate items to his
foundation, as well as to Kids in Distressed Situations.
