FNO boasts a treasure trunk of options, meaning that there should be something to suit your taste no matter where it may be. Get there early and scoop up swag at Rifle + Radford at Urban Space Meatpacking, drink champagne pretty much anywhere, listen to live music, or check out one of the many FNO parties. Overwhelmed? Here are our top tips for survival...nay, success, at FNO!
1. Stick to one or two adjacent neighborhoods. The last thing you want to do is spend your evening stuck in transit on subways jammed full of eye-candy on their way to the next event.
2. Make friends. Word of mouth is sometimes the best way to figure out the best things going, especially since there are tons of underground parties just waiting for you to discover them. (Special shout-out to Barry Yoko, my bff from last year's FNO!)
3. Be charitable. Whilst it fun to accumulate free swag everywhere, keep in mind that most events are geared at least in part towards raising money for charity. Good karma, StyleSetters.
4. Take sartorial risks! If ever there was a night to wear that outfit that you normally won't chance, now is the time. Nothing is off-limits. This is the most beautiful time of the year, inside and out...time to express yourself, whatever that means for you.
5. Drink champagne. Just a rule, that's all.
