The 7th on Sixth fashion shows don't officially start until Friday, but there's no stopping the frock flock from its parties. The festivities unofficially started on Wednesday. The biggest events were probably two competing anniversary parties: Max Mara's started with cocktails at its store and moved to dinner at the Puck Building; Emanuel Ungaro celebrated at the 69th Regiment Armory, with event management by Bureau Betak, catering by Cafiero Lussier and PR by Nadine Johnson Inc. (A Harper's Bazaar editor told the Times she'd have dinner at Max Mara, then "boogie the night away at Ungaro," and hopefully change clothes between them.)
