<\/a><\/p>\n Fashion’s Night Out (not to be confused with Victoria, Canada’s fledgling fashion event<\/a>) is celebrating its second birthday<\/a> this fall and New York mayor Michael Bloomberg shared the final details of the much-anticipated event.<\/p>\n Last year’s event filled the streets with fashion lovers in nearly every neighborhood where there were events, and this year promises to be even bigger<\/a> – and hopefully better for retailers who gave mixed reviews<\/a> on the sales success. September 10th will bring together fashion retailers, celebrities and designers in a celebration of fashion and its importance on our communities and the global economy. Steve Sadove, CEO of Saks Fifth Ave noted at last year’s event, “We started to see a turn in the industry, sales started to stabilize,” he claimed.<\/p>\n If you’re planning to participate, get ready for specialty items offered by many stores who also plan to produce limited-edition merchandise for all FNO shoppers.<\/p>\n The best part of the whole evening is the interactive nature of the event. People shopping out in the streets, sharing, laughing and enjoying the perks of a good cause. Like Marc Jacobs said, “It felt like a block party… it felt like what shopping is all about, the social ritual.” {Stylelist<\/a>}<\/p>\n
