Fashion's Night Out!

Fashion's Night Out is almost here! The kick-off of New York's Fashion Week, Fashion's Night Out is a new, consumer-friendly event that happens once a year all over NYC! Due to the economy being so bad and fashion shows being extremely exclusive, FNO allows everyday people, just like you and me, to explore and see what Fashion Week is all about. On this night, stores will be staying open till about midnight and will be having celebrity appearances and giveaways.

The one event I'm predicting will be huge is the star-studded gala that will be going on at Barneys. Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, Alexander Wang, the Proenza boys, the sister team of Rodarte and tons more will be there all night doing tons of events. This one has been the most talked-about of the events going on during the evening all around Manhattan.

Some other places you can find celebs and designers:
- Supermodel Bar Rafaeli will be at Armani on 5th Ave.
- Tommy Hilfiger and other authors will be at The Plaza
- Mark Badgley and James Mischka of Badgley Mischka will be at Bergdorf's
- Also at Bergdorf's: Nicole Richie, Victoria Beckham, Mary J. Blige, and fashion designers Monique Lhuillier, Catharine Malandrino, Tom Ford and more!
- Actress Rosario Dawson will be at Bottega Veneta on 5th Ave.
- Designer Carmen Marc Valvo will be signing t-shirts at Lord & Taylor
- Designer Chris Benz will be playing Nintendo Wii at Saks
- Supermodel and "Project Runway" host Heidi Klum will be at Destination Maternity on 57th St.
- Designer Donna Karen will be at her Madison Ave. DKNY store
- Frederic Fekkai of the famous haircare line will be with Marchesa at Bendel's along with socialite Olivia Palmero.
- Kenneth Cole will be at his 5th Ave. store

Okay, so I think you guys get the idea. This is where the runway of Lincoln Center (sorry, no more Bryant Park) takes on NYC. There are TONS more than just these events going on. To check out what's happening in any neighborhood of Manhattan or even any other state or country (this isn't just happening in NYC, but all over the world!), go to www.fashionsnightout.com or check out their Facebook and Twitter pages.

If you are into fashion, do not let this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity pass you by. It is something you will never forget.
