Two of my favorite designers are being featured: Diane Von Furstenberg gets interviewed, and Tory Burch gives a tour of her design studio. We also get to see inside an FNO meeting at Vogue.

(((For those of you who haven't heard about FNO, here is an excerpt from cbs:

Fashion’s Night Out is an initiative to celebrate fashion and boost the retail industry. This year’s event kicks off with the largest public fashion show in New York City history at the new Lincoln Center, featuring approximately 200 models.

Last year in New York City and other cities around the globe; designers, celebrities, movie stars, models and fashion editors staged exciting, one-of-a-kind events and performances in stores open after-hours to the public. Sarah Jessica Parker and Bette Midler sang standards with Oscar de la Renta; Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen tended bar at an uptown fashion emporium; and Sienna Miller hosted a party at a downtown boutique. Retailers saw a surge of new shoppers and increased sales, customers relished the street-party atmosphere, and the fashion industry experienced a much-needed lift. This year’s celebrations promise to be even bigger. )))
