Thursday night (6-11pm), hundreds of retailers and designers are hosting events across the five boroughs intended to boost consumer confidence while celebrating fashion. In Manhattan alone, walk into almost any boutique and you’ll get handed a glass of Champagne. There are so many events planned – get complimentary cosmetics at Saks, free manicures at Chanel, and meet Anna Wintour in Queens or vie for photo ops with Donna Karan, Narciso Rodriguez, Alexander Wang and other designers in Manhattan – that you may want to narrow your list.
To help you with your list, here’s a guide to the top events of Fashion’s Night Out:
- Check out Zac Posen creating one-of-a-kind paintings in the front window at Bergdorf Goodman from 5 to 6 p.m. Watch “Top Chef” host Padma Lakshmi conduct a cookoff between designers Peter Som, Cynthia Rowley and Lela Rose from 6 to 7. Feeling peckish and getting thirsty? The Olsen twins tend bar and serve appetizers from 7 to 8. Vogue editor at large Andre Leon Talley hosts a game show featuring designer Donna Karan and stylist Robert Verdi from 8 to 9. And Isaac Mizrahi performs a cabaret act at 9. If you hang out long enough, you may catch celeb appearances by Victoria Beckham, Manolo Blahnik and Narciso Rodriquez. Where: 754 Fifth Ave. at 58th St.
- If you’re looking for the Fashion’s Night Out T-shirt, stop by Prada and Gucci where you can get one for free. Not bad considering the other retailers will be selling it for $35. But go early, supplies may not last. At Prada’s Fifth Avenue store, Creative Director of Vogue, Grace Coddington will recreate her magical Little Red Riding Hood story from the September issue of Vogue. Prada has produced a limited edition red basket bag for the night, a red cape and a red coat sold exclusively on Fashion’s Night Out in honour of Grace’s project. Where: 724 Fifth Ave. b/w 56th & 57th Sts.
- Take a breather at Takashimaya where you can view a Japanese exhibition on the main floor as you sip wine and savor hors d’oeuvres. Tea tastings with sweet treats in the lower level. Sake tasting and snack on sushi on the third floor. Stop by the fifth floor for the Lingerie Diet Champagne event and meet founder Margaret Shrum. You’ll get a $25 gift certificate when you spend $100, a $50 certificate for purchases totaling $250 and up. Where: 693 Fifth Avenue (at Fifty-seventh Street).
- Get the star treatment at Saks Fifth Avenue where they’ve laid out the red carpet to lead you into the store’s Fifth Avenue entrance. Head straight for the beauty section where the real deals are found.  More than 7,000 cosmetics will be given away from Estée Lauder, Frederic Fekkai, Laura Mercier, and Tom Ford. You can also take advantage of complimentary brow-shaping services, while guys receive free clean-ups at John Allan’s men’s salon. Also, you’ll get a chance to mingle with Donna Karan, Carolina Herrera, Peter Som and other designers.
