Fashion’s Night Out 2011 – New York City
6 September 2012
Fashion’s Night Out (FNO), the biggest fashion party of the year, will return to New York City on September 6th. More than 1,000 stores, in New York City alone, will take part in this extravaganza. Eighteen countries in total – including the U.S. – and retailers in more than 250 cities across the country will be celebrating FNO. The goal of FNO is to celebrate fashion and shopping, restore consumer confidence, and boost the industry’s economy. Stores will keep their doors open late offering steep discounts, drinks, free manicures, makeovers, contests, gift bags and lots of incentives to get people to open their wallets. Fashionistas get to mingle with celebrity guests and get fashion advice from some of the top designers in the industry.
Also, no need to walk around from one store to the next in your Stilettos. You can get around FREE on a hop-on, hop-off Gray Line Double Decker bus.
Participating retailers are hawking the official 2012 Fashion’s Night Out collection of shirts and bags starting at $25, with a portion of the proceeds benefiting the New York City AIDS Fund. The Empire State Building also dresses to impress with red lights for the big night.
Some notable events at Fashion’s Night Out 2012 include:
– Meet Carmen Marc Valvo and Matchbox 20 and check out new goodies from Marc Jacobs, Lady Gaga, Thomas Pink, at Bergdorf-Goodman (754 Fifth Avenue).
