The sign backstage read:

LIVING THE "REEL LIFE"
GET READY FOR YOUR CLOSE UP
THE PAPS LOVE YOU AND FOLLOW YOUR EVERY MOVE
BE GLAMOROUS, POWERFUL AND SOPHISTICATED
HAVE FUN - YOU ARE SUPERSTARS!

And don't forget to MAKE A 2 SECOND PAUSE at each turn ladies and gents!

I love love LOVE going to Kors' show because I always know I'll get a fun 10 minute ride somewhere, especially when we saw signs cautioning audience members that "strobe lights" would be used during the show. Hitchcock heroines, sexy librarians, the tv show "Mad Men" and Amy Winehouse all influenced Kors this season, with models sauntering out to a soundtrack mashup that included tunes from Winehouse, Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes" and Madonna's "Hollywood". As the lights turned down to signal the start of the show, Freddie Mercury's voice came on crooning the following lines from Bohemian Rhapsody, "Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?"

He told us backstage that he imagined a situation where Kim Novak and Amy Winehouse became roomates and decided to share clothes.
