American Express and NY Fashion Week do it again

Are you still wondering what the perfect surprise gift would be for the one you love this Valentine’s Day?  Well American Express has the answer.

In the fall, I was so lucky to partner with them for a “Brides Love Fashion” event where one lucky winner (Emily) received backstage access to the Tory Burch show, met the fabulous Ms. Burch and received tons of wedding goodies thanks to American Express, Michael C. Fina and Dermalogica.  Right now, YOU can create your own private access package as an American Express Cardmember.

On February 10 at 8 PM, American Express will present The CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund (CVFF) Cardmember Only Show in the Theatre at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center. This allows you the Cardmember first-ever access to a variety of runway shows, presentations and unique industry experiences through a groundbreaking partnership with MAC & Milk. Having participated in this in the past, I know your honey will love this!!  Packages are available now at americanexpress.com/entertainment.

In addition and for the first time ever, you can also purchase packages for a wide variety of runway shows and presentations at the Meatpacking District destination featuring designers such as Vena Cava, Peter Som, Richard Chai, Erin Fetherston, Jeremy Scott and many more.

So if your honey would love unparalleled access to the Fashion industry, backstage meet-and-greets with some of the industry’s boldest designer names, makeup sessions with MAC specialty artists, private sessions with the esteemed team from notable Pipino Salon, entry to select after-parties and more go to americanexpress.com/entertainment for all the details.

Finally, don’t forget that you can always follow them on Twitter @AmericanExpress and/or hashtag #amexfashion.  I’m hoping that you will also follow my tweets @Bridalease hashtag#nyfw for access to the shows and designers we love.  The question was asked, “Am I doing this kind of event again?”  Keep watching, there’s something BIG in store. Can’t wait to see YOU on the runway.
