Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week NYC & Fashion's Night Out
New York Spring/Summer 2011 Fashion Week kicks off on September 9 at its brand new Lincoln Center home. Best known for its opera, dance, music, and arts, the steps at Lincoln Center will see scores of skinny, tall, well-dressed women and men flocking towards a jam-packed schedule of designer shows including newcomer Prabal Gurung, and the always hotly anticipated Project Runway finale. If that isn't excitement enough, Anna Wintour's economical fashion brainchild Fashion's Night Out (aka FNO) sets off September 10 worldwide with the second annual biggest fashion party in history! Hundreds of NYC retailers will stay open 'till all hours, beckoning shoppers with free food, live music, and insane celebrity appearances. I mean every single fashion celebrity you've ever fantasized about, such as Ms. Wintour herself, the royal Olsen twins, Marc Jacobs, and many many more. Last year I spent a good portion of FNO at the Alexander McQueen store, mingling with champagne glasses and Luci Liu, then it was on to the Stella McCartney store which teemed with fashionistas and a special appearance by Kate Hudson and Stella herself.
