Super Sttyle

It was Topshop pandemonium this morning on Broadway as shoppers turned out in droves for their chance to grab at the British chain's cheaply-chic goods. The line did a 360 around the block with wait times of up to three hours, but it wasn't your typical waiting-on-line experience. Madewell gave out free coffee, Pinkberry handed out samples, and the smiling Topshop staff rewarded its admirers with totes, cookies, water, and complimentary gift cards. We pushed our way past the paparazzi, swarms of fashion students cutting class, and Kate Moss sightings to bring you the brightest young things who turned the spectacle into a full-on fashion show.
