Los Angeles Fashion's Night Out Events

LOS ANGELES (CBS) — An unprecedented global initiative, Fashion's Night Out is a collaboration between American Vogue, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, NYC & Company, and the City of New York that was created to celebrate fashion, restore consumer confidence, boost the industry's economy, and put the fun back in shopping. To celebrate Fashion's Night Out, businesses in San Fernando Valley, Beverly Hills and West Hollywood plan to extend their hours and host events in celebration of fashion.

Beverly Hills

Rodeo Drive will anchor a Beverly Hills' extravaganza featuring 80 in-store events on Rodeo Drive, Wilshire Blvd., Beverly and Canon Drives, and Brighton Way. The centerpiece of the celebration will be a four-story Ferris Wheel on the 200 block of Rodeo Drive with complimentary rides for two when guests show their receipt of purchases from participating stores -- while rides last. The night will also feature a variety of events including celebrity appearances, DJs, art installations, new product introductions, charitable shopping, anniversary events, complimentary manicures, gifts with purchase, and a variety of carnival-themed fashion events. In addition, seven of L.A.'s hottest gourmet food trucks will line the 300 and 400 blocks of Rodeo Drive. The night will also include a life-size Fashion Rulesä trivia game, hosted by Pandoraä, played on Rodeo Drive adjacent to the Ferris Wheel.
