I'm part of the crew that produces Content each year at the Ace Hotel, so you know what? I'm not going to say anything about it. Instead, I'll direct you toward this week's Sold Out column, guest written by Toby Robboy:

Since it was first launched in 2009, Content has evolved considerably, and designers have increasingly tapped into the possibilities that the unique format presents.

Installations that have scented, edible, and auditory elements help to expand the idea of what fashion, or wearable work, really is." Designer Lindsey Reif, who's known for her line Reif (and super-popular turban headbands), adds that, "The first year none of us really knew what to expect. Over the past few years I've seen some amazingly creative installations that make me really proud to be a part of the event."
