    • Published at 1:07am

    • Sometimes the pre-show people watching is as much fun as the fashion show itself. It was a toss-up at Kati Stern Venexiana. I started out chatting and hunting celebrities with two perfectly...

    Time Out New York / Issue 656 : Apr 23–29, 2008

    Date my apartment

    What does your pad say about your dating prospects? We scour two singles’ homes for clues.

    By Allison Williams

    Nadia, 31
    Alphabet City, newspaper editor

    A space this orderly and coordinated is a surefire sign of an individual with her proverbial shit together; the absence of ironic kitsch means you’re not facing a too-cool-for-school poseur; and the well-appointed apartment is the mark of a social, stylish date.

    -
    The intimidating tidiness telegraphs sky-high expectations. This homeowner has a strong identity already, so if you don’t fit in with the crisp design, beloved pet or worldly outlook, you may just be out of luck. Interested anyway? E-mail tonysingles.nadia@gmail.com.
