CBS’ cameras are set to follow celebrities, designers, editors and retailers in the world of fashion.
Apparently, the network is preparing a fashion-focused primetime special
As if we weren’t already excited enough about September 10, 2010, Fashion’s Night Out outdid itself with a history-making announcement today.
The initiative will stage the largest public fashion show in New York City history on September 7, 2010 at Lincoln Center.
The show is to be produced by Vogue and SPEC Entertainment and will boast over 200 of the industry’s top models, says the CFDA web site.
It will give nearly 1,500 guests a look at the key trends of the Fall 2010 season as identified by the magazine. Tickets for the fashion show will be made available through the Lincoln Center box office this summer with a portion of the proceeds benefitting The New York City AIDS Fund.
I’ll keep you posted!
Some big news for you shopaholics out there.
A few influential people, including NY Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg and Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour have announced extra-long opening hours on the first night of Fashion Week.
The initiative is called Fashion’s Night Out, where participating retail stores across the five boroughs will stay open until 11:00 PM on September 10.
What’s so great about it?
Besides extra time to shop, Fashion’s Night Out will provide local retailers with a boost.
Also, it will benefit important New York City causes.
A special limited-edition t-shirt has been created for Fashion’s Night Out and will go on sale at participating retailers three-weeks prior to the event. Proceeds from its sale will support the National September 11 Memorial & Museum.
In addition, shoppers will be encouraged to donate gently used or newly purchased clothes at participating stores or at specifically designated drop-off locations. Clothes will then be collected by the New York City AIDS Fund to benefit HIV/AIDS organizations across the city.
