Galleria Dallas Celebrates Fashion’s Night Out

I hope you’re having fun getting ready for Fashion’s Night Out happening around the world on September 6, 2012.  The Galleria Dallas is pulling out all the stops to make this a wonderful night! They are getting ready for THREE runway shows this weekend (Runway Revue shows are at 12PM, 2 PM and 4PM on THIS Saturday). Galleria Dallas is reinventing Fashion’s Night Out in a style that’s uniquely DALLAS!

When Fashion’s Night Out was created in New York, it was designed to support the retail industry in tough economic times.  Well, here in Dallas, we shop VERY well. But what DOES define us is a commitment to community, and that’s what differentiates the FNO celebration at Galleria Dallas.

While Fashion’s Night Out at Galleria Dallas has signature elements like it’s QUARTER MILE long runway shows created by Jan Strimple (over 40 models will each trek over 1 ½ miles in heels to showcase the latest fall fashions) and pre-events like free Beauty Stops which start at 3PM. Check out who’s partnering with Galleria Dallas and its stores to engage the community.

  • Fashion Group International will host a lounge in the center’s common area.
  • The Smartwater Shopper Lounge will be hosted by Fox 4’s Lauren Przybyl and Cattle Baron’s Ball.
  • Attitudes and Attire will collect gently used handbags at Dooney & Bourke (donors will enjoy a free limited-edition Dooney eyeglass case with any pre-owned purse donation).
  • Equest at Faconnable (15% of the evenings sales will benefit Equest, and one lucky attendee will receive a shirt each season for the coming year from Faconnable, and another will receive a private visit from one of Equests’s adorable miniature horse ambassadors, perfect for a child’s school or a senior center.
  • Luminaries Yvonne Crum and Allison Lehman will host a benefit for the Suicide and Crisis Center of North Texas at Bachendorf’s.
  • Italian shoe show-stopper Carlo Pazolini will host a benefit for PAWS in the City.  10% of sales will be returned to the group, and the party will be hosted by Tara Harper.
  • Society of Women Who Love Shoes will be at Saks Fifth Avenue as they celebrate new limited edition fall shows from Brian Atwood.
  • Danielle Vollmar will join Trooper’s Team for a benefit party at Apricot Lane, where 15% of the evening’s sales will go to help animals in need.
  • SWAGG Magazine celebrates Fashion’s Night Out at Galleria Dallas with Brahmin Handbags (the designers of the OFFICIAL FNO tote!) for shopping, giveaways and more!

Each of these parties are open to attend, and include tidbits and tasty drinks.  Dozens of other retailers are also hosting events featuring DJ’s, drawings and more!
