This year, Fashion’s Night Out in New York was a city-wide party, with stores staying open to all hours, brands offering special products and shoppers literally dancing in the streets. My video team captured all the fun and excitement as I made my way from Madison Avenue to the Meatpacking District (wearing a very “uptown” silk jacket by Marcel Marongiu for Guy Laroche and “downtown” denim by J Brand), but these candid, behind-the-scenes photographs also tell a great story.

Our last stops were Alexander McQueen (where I tried on a jacket) and Jeffrey, on West 14th Street, where the talented Devon Scott was holding a trunk show. Devon attracted a gorgeous crowd, and the store was buzzing with a real party atmosphere. We stayed long enough to catch up with all our friends–but then my team and I headed off to dinner at The Lion to celebrate a fabulous Fashion’s Night Out!
