Fashion's Night Out

In a global initiative to promote retail, restore consumer confidence, and celebrate fashion, U.S. and international editions of Vogue are coordinating evening extravaganzas in their respective world fashion capitals. The first evening of New York Fashion Week, Fashion's Night Out will encompass festivities galore— from inventive window displays to model and celebrity appearances. Champagne may flow; hors d'oeuvres may be passed. Rumors of musical performances, downtown barbecues, shoe capsules, limited-edition rings, and sweepstakes abound. Apparently there will be makeovers, brow bars, and haircut stations at sundry spots, too. They’ve invited every fashion retailer across the five boroughs to encourage the fun of fashion again—flagships, tiny boutiques, massive department stores, young designers, mainstream chains, and niche luxury names alike—by keeping its doors open late on the evening of September 10 and to implement creative customer experiences welcoming all. Over 700 retailers and designers across New York City are confirmed participants in Fashion’s Night Out. Yes readers, 700 retailers and designers! Designers and retailers from 3.1 Phillip Lim, A Bathing Ape, Aldo, Alexander McQueen, American Eagle, Armani 5th Ave. (a fab looking store by the way!), Betsey Johnson, Billionaire Boys Club and Ice, Juicy Couture, Tracy Reese and many many more! I promise you guys if I did not have classes I would SO be there and would of been able to give you all the full scoop! Whyyyy?! This sounds like it's going to be the fashion event of the year! Can you imagine whose going to be there?! From what I heard Taylor Momsen is going to make an apperance, Anna Wintour is going to be signing shirts at the Macy's in Queens. If only, if only!
