DONNA’S NIGHT OUT: Donna Karan’s distaste for the fashion calendar is well known, and she thinks Fashion’s Night Out could help solve the problem. “That’s when we should be launching,” Karan said, suggesting designers show their collections in multiple cities. “They could see the same show as Lincoln Center,” she said.
The designer came closer to that vision by staging runway events at Holt Renfrew in Toronto on Aug. 24, and at Neiman Marcus in Chicago last Friday. Karan said she would even be open to staging a show in Times Square on New Year’s Eve. “We could celebrate in season,” she said. “In this economy, why confuse the customer?”
