Fashion’s Night Out is a global event to celebrate fashion, entice consumers’ enthusiasm and revive the struggling retail industry. The international editions of VOGUE Magazine are partnering with designers, department stores and boutiques to create an exciting unprecedented evening of fashion and shopping. On September 10, shoppers will be treated to in-store sales promotions, personal appearances from VOGUE Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour and many fashion designers, including Tommy Hilfiger, Anna Sui and Vera Wang, live music performances, contests, makeovers and more. In cities worldwide, including Bejing, London, Milan, Madrid and New York City, stores will open their doors to promote and restore consumer confidence, and remain open until late. In New York City, for example, over 700 stores covering all five boroughs will offer shoppers the opportunity to shop until 11 p.m., on the eve of New York Fashion Week.

In addition to the shopping excursions, VOGUE designed a limited-edition T-shirt with the sales’ proceeds benefitting various charities. In NYC, donations will be made to the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, in honor of those lives remembered, and in London, all of the proceeds from the commemorative T-shirts will go to Crisis, a charity for the homeless. If you aren’t able to attend Fashion’s Night Out, you can still purchase a T-shirt online. Designer Adam Lippes is offering the T-shirt available for purchase on his own site Adam.
