Watching the Catwalk and Clicking "Add to Cart"



Gucci will allow anyone to sign up to watch its show online, and will let viewers share live Webcam videos as though they were playing with YouTube. Alexander Wang is projecting video of its show on a “moving billboard” in Manhattan, and Betsey Johnson is showing live Web versions of the show and the backstage frenzy before it.

And in the most aggressive outreach, Burberry, the British design house, will not only stream its women’s runway show live from London, but also will allow anyone with a computer and a credit card to order the merchandise as models strut in it.
