With no Project Runway in the tents this season, the biggest Fashion Week rivalry at Lincoln Center has been the one between the Diet Pepsi and Diet Coke promo teams. Each has something to promote?Diet Pepsi their new, "skinny" cans and Diet Coke their involvement with the Red Dress charity?and each has hired and attired girls to pass out free soda to show-goers.

So who won the soda wars of Fashion Week? Was it the brunette Pepsi girls with their sparkling black strapless numbers? Or the blonde, all-American Coke girls with their simple, chic red dresses? You tell us?but we will say that we believe Pepsi handed out more free cans than Coke did.
