A Chance Meeting With a Rising Star

"During my very first NYFW ever as a bright-eyed beauty assistant, I serendipitously found myself standing in line next to Anna Kendrick at the back entrance of a Rebecca Minkoff show. At the time, it didn't feel like much of a big deal — we exchanged smiles, said a few niceties, and then were herded inside, where I was escorted to the backstage area and she (probably) to a seat in the front row. I knew she looked familiar, but this was right before the inaugural Pitch Perfect dropped in 2012 (and therefore, before her stardom catapulted). Still, it goes to show that you never know who you're gonna meet at Fashion Week!" — Kelsey Castañon, senior editor, Beauty
