From Brooklyn to Brazil and now Bellevue, the fashion industry is buzzing about Fashion’s Night Out (FNO) on September 10.
The worldwide fashion event celebrates and supports the fashion and retail industries through a night of shopping, special giveaways, runway shows and fashion-forward celebrity appearances.
For the first year, Bellevue is on board with FNO at both The Bravern and The Bellevue Collection.
FNO @ The Shops at The Bravern
The Shops at The Bravern will roll out the red carpet and VIP treatment on the weekend of September 10 through September 12 in celebration of the first ever Fall for Fashion Weekend. It all starts with an official FNO event on Friday, September 10, from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m.
The red carpet event will kick off with special giveaways and sales at a number of shops throughout The Bravern, along with live music, bits and bubbles. As a special tie to the New York City event, Neiman Marcus will broadcast the Big Apple celebration in their store with their very own fashion director and Northwest native Ken Downing as he celebrates Fashion’s Night Out at Bergdorf Goodman in New York City.
To make the evening more special, local “street artists” will be on hand to customize tee shirts and totes – all for a good cause. Proceeds will be donated to Sunflower Children and its mission to provide survival and development aid for the forgotten children of the world.
The event will also include live cooking demonstrations, Bollywood entertainment, complimentary spa services, special trunk shows, stylists and models. The celebration continues all weekend long.
A complete program for the weekend is available at www.thebravern.com/fall.
