		<description><![CDATA[We here at theavantguardian.org like to keep our collective finger on the pulse of the zeitgeist, so there was no doubt in our minds as to whether we should coordinate our own fashion week with the Spring-Summer 2011 collections on display in New York for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. Expect the usual avant garde fun along with some hard-hitting reporting from behind the scenes at all the shows, parties, and on the streets. We are the goon squad and we&#8217;re coming to town&#8230;..beep beep! Photo Credit: StyleHop Blog]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[ Fashion photographer Karen Genetta jerryrigged her first studio in her parent&#8217;s basement as a teenager and hasn&#8217;t put the camera down since.  She describes her style as OCD meets minimalism plus a dash of goth, which seems apt, as her work is still, sculptural, and sometimes a little dark. You can see evidence of her idols in her work: the stark obsessiveness of Guy Bourdin and the provocative daring of Erwin Olaf.  The traces of them are there, but what you won&#8217;t find is direct imitation.  Genetta says, &#8220;I reject alot of outside influence, and when it comes to magazines my only and holy subscription is Numéro.  I think I&#8217;ve developed a style of my own.&#8221; Genetta is originally from London, went to school for graphic design in Miami, and now lives and works in New York.  You can see her work at www.karengenetta.com.  ]]></description>
