Sony’s Live Mannequins Descend On New York Fashion Week, Tiny VAIO Laptops In Hand…

Posted in: Uncategorized

After Vivienne Tam’s models carried mini special edition HP laptops as clutches during her Spring/Summer show at New York Fashion Week in September, we had a feeling we hadn’t seen the last of the fashionably marketed tech toys- and we were right! As the countdown to the Fall/Winter shows begins, Sony is sending models to various New York City settings, toting the new VAIO Lifestyle PCs while showing off the latest from Elise Overland, Threeasfour, Libertine, and Katy Rodriguez. So if you happen to be window shopping in Midtown today and spot a group of impeccably dressed women acting strangely robotic with laptops in hand, go ahead and stare- it’s like one of those artsy television commercials, except live and kind of awkward. You can even track the models on Sony’s web site and watch video footage of them at each location. Strange? Yes, but this is NYC, and Fashion Week no less, and strange is to be expected.

Meet Manolo, Mingle With The Olsens, And Party With Opening Ceremony At Fashion’s Night Out!

Posted in: Uncategorized
imageAny fashion week brings with it a slew of star-studded parties, but next month’s spring 2010 shows in NYC will be ushered in by an absolute extravaganza- Fashion’s Night Out. The September 10th event will feature everything from model and celebrity appearances to in-store events and meet and greets, and of course, shopping! It’s being put on by Vogue, the CFDA, NYC & Company, and the City of New York, with the idea that engaging the city in the fun and excitement of fashion and shopping will restore consumer confidence once again. So what can we expect? For starters, Anna Wintour will appear at Macy’s in Queens (wow, who would’ve thought) to sign t-shirts (again, wow), Andre Leon Talley will host a game at Bergdorf’s. Coco Rocha will be doing a special performance at DKNY, Sasha Pivovarova will be showing her art at Henri Bendel, and it-girls like Harley Viera-Newton and Alexandra and Theodora Richards will be DJ-ing about town. Want more? Manolo Blahnik will hold a meet-and-greet, Oscar de la Renta will sing, Opening Ceremony is having a block party, and Chanel will have a customized handbag studio! Still not excited? Mark your calendars: Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen will be bartending at Barneys– is it bad that I want someone to order a black and Tanner? For more information on Fashion’s Night Out, including the festivities in other cities around the world and a more complete list of events, go here!
