A Call Girl Moment?

Former call girl Ashley Dupre managed to snake her way into fashion week by grabbing a front row seat at a show she wasn't invited to! Ashley posed with designer Yigal Azrouel backstage and then by her seat before the show. Later, Yigal claimed to be furious that Dupre was allowed to his show and that he somehow wasn't aware of who she was when he posed for the photograph. In fact, following the show he released a press statement that he had fired the fashion PR company People's Revolution for "mismanagement". 

So how did Ashley Dupre get in? Apparently, back during the scandal, she had met with Kelly Cutrone (founder and owner of People's Revolution) when she was looking for a publicist. They didn't end up working together but stayed in touch. Kelly told the New York Daily News that she had invited Ashley to a show that was scheduled at four pm (although she declined to name the show). Dupre apparently decided to show up hours early (the Azrouel show was at 11 AM) and managed to talk her way in. Kelly claims she was backstage and had no idea how Ashley snagged the seat.

Whatever happened the only person who managed to get the press attention that they wanted from the show was Ashley Dupre.
