Last year’s Jakarta Fashion Week was a pleasure and a pain to go through. I thoroughly enjoyed the excitement and buzz of attending and writing about fashion shows in this country’s premier fashion week, but it did not come without a cost — and the cost that I am talking about here is physical discomfort.
Griss, myself, and our beloved contributors spent innumerable hours on our feet, walking around from post to post to watch shows, attend press conferences, and stake out a spot for a wifi signal. As far as my feet were concerned, it was a nightmare, even when I was wearing flats. This is why I would sneak out of the Fashion Tent and into Senayan City Mall when I had time between shows — in these happy moments, I would go ahead and treat myself to an hour of reflexology.
