This September marks the third season that Lincoln Center will host Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week 2011, a fact that has resulted in a subtle undertone of uncertainty as to whether the more recent venue can continue to generate the energy and fervor for Fashion Week that characterized the more legendary Bryant Park.
“When you think of Lincoln Center, you think of the arts, the music, the dance and the opera, so I think being there will elevate and celebrate fashion as an art,” said Donna Karan, to The New York Times in February, 2011. With such declarations of confidence, New York Fashion Week is sure to be nothing short of magnificent. And for fashionistas who still need an ‘in’ to the infamous shows, charitybuzz is offering two fashion week experiences to get couture-lovers behind-the-scenes from September 8-15.
One bidder and a friend can win an all-expense paid Tommy Hilfiger experience at New York Fashion Week 2011! Two fashion fanatics can sit beside the runway of the Tommy Hilfiger Spring 2012 Womenswear runway show, and score backstage passes to see hair, makeup, models and all the makings of runway show magic being made! Afterwards, the pair will head down to the Hilfiger 5th Avenue store to go on a $500 shopping spree, on the house! Airfare and hotel accommodations are also taken care of, for a truly luxurious Fashion Week experience. Bidding is open now through Wednesday, August 31 at http://www.charitybuzz.com/catalog_items/275609.
