If you havent already blocked out the evening of September 8 on your calendar, its hard to imagine whats stopping you. Its Fashions Night Out (FNO), an event which began in New York City during the darkest days of the recession, has become a global event, and arguably one of the most stylish of the year. But just because youve abdicated your sleek city lifestyle for a quieter, exurban existance doesnt mean you have to miss out.
Fashions Night Out is coming to a style savvy town near you! Both Fairfield and Westchester Counties are hosting well-accessorized events that will bring the glitz much closer to home.
In New York, White Plains will be the en vogue epicenter, headquartered at The Westchester. Shoppers can expect tons of free samples, demos, modeling and more. Kick back in the FNO lounge on Retail Level One nearby David Yurman to sign up for designer swag bags and enjoy hand massages and express facials courtesy of LOccitaine. Feather boas included. Then, shop designers and retailers like Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, Ann Taylor, Club Monaco, Cole Haan, Juicy Couture, MAC, Michael Kors, Salvatore Ferragamo, Tory Burch and Wolford Boutique for bargains and tips on the best for fall 2011.
Connecticuts style mecca for FNO is On the Ave. in Greenwich. Music, food and plenty of deals and steals await. With Saks Fifth Avenue spearheading the evening, you know its going to be gorgeous. Watch as the "Ave" is transformed into a working runway, and pop into your favorite boutiques for samples and sales.
Get ready for your close up Sept. 8, and remember to check back here for more details.
