Fashion Night Out Chicago 2011

Thursday, September 8th was Fashion Night Out all around the world.  This event was started two years ago in New York City to boost the economy, to get people out, shop and spend money.  The Fashion Night Out (FNO) merchandise proceeds went to AIDS research.

Last year FNO was nationwide, and I was hired to work an event at Macy's on State Street in Chicago.  It was a great event, and once again, all proceeds from the sales of the FNO merchandise went to AIDS research.

For this year's event, I was hired by Macy's to work their event at Water Tower Place in Chicago.  Their visual staff and myself put together a "Fashion Closet" where the event took place.  Check out the photos below! 

Nora Dunn (former SNL actress) attended the event to promote the play she'll be starring in Love, Loss and What I Wore.  Then Macy's had Marcellas Reynolds (celebrity stylist)of the E network give fashion advice to the audience and had them compete in a "fashion challenge".  FYI...he use to be one of our Marshall Field's models.  He was so much fun!!!

Then there were our "informal" models wearing the latest Macy's trends...Navajo Nation, Be Brilliant and Classic Mix.  They looked fabulous, but I'm biased.  I did dress them!  I think that everyone who attended had a great time. 

So next year, don't forget..Fashion Night Out!!!

Enjoy your day!!
