Fashion’s Night Out (FNO) will be held this year in Istanbul on September 15th. Fashion’s Night Out began in 2009 as a global initiative sponsored by Vogue magazine and the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) as a means of encouraging consumers to shop and support the fashion industry during tough economic times.

While the first event was just held in New York City, by 2010 it had already spread to 16 countries, with FNO events held in Australia, Brazil, China, London, Paris, Berlin, Greece, India, Milan, Portugal, Russia, Spain, South Korea, Taiwan, and Turkey.

Now, on its third year, FNO has spread to 17 countries. On this one special night, participating stores in Nişantaşı, İstinyePark, and Bağdat Caddesi will be open until midnight. A series of special events are planned, including DJ performances and special discounts. Don’t miss what promises to be a great night of shopping, fashion, and fun.
