Fashion’s Night Out is Returning in 2010
Thursday, October 29, 2009 by Jacqui Pini
NYC Mayor Bloomberg along with NYC officials, Vogue and Fashion’s Night Out (FNO) organizers announced FNO will be coming back on September 9, 2010.
"The numbers are in, and it's clear that Fashion's Night Out was a tremendous success," said Mayor Bloomberg. "Thousands of New Yorkers attended the events in all five boroughs, supporting the City's retail and fashion industries and helping a worthwhile cause. It's sure to be an even bigger event in 2010."
A study done by ShopperTrak showed there was a likely a 50% increase in retail foot traffic and NYC & Company's own post-event survey of 1,300 consumers reported 75% purchased goods during FNO.
Indulge covered the weeks leading up to, and the actual FNO event in 2009 and we’ll be doing the same in 2010. Stay tuned to find out about the new designers and stores participating and all the fun events to support this shopping pep rally.
