There’s Fashion Week drama away from the runways, too.
Artist Jessica Repetto, 27, whose work has appeared in Vogue, slapped Milk Studios with a $40,000 lawsuit yesterday, saying the Chelsea gallery lost her sketchbook last September.
“This is my artwork,” Repetto, who is sketching the Marc Jacobs show for GQ this week, told The Post yesterday. “It’s something you can’t reproduce after it’s done. It’s a huge blow.”
Milk had hired Repetto, who pulls in $1,000 a pop for her creative, colorful renditions of runway moments, for fall Fashion Week last year.
She left her notepad in the West 15th Street gallery’s media room on Sept. 12, and when she went to retrieve it five days later, it was gone, according to her Manhattan Supreme Court lawsuit.
Reps for Milk Studios did not return calls for comment.
