This is just a small sampling of the hundreds of  events listed on FNO’s website and you can filter through all of them by neighborhood, category or specialty. FNO also has an iPhone/Android app to help you plan your itinerary on the go thus ensuring this year you can make as many regrettable, booze-induced purchases as possible. [WWD]

Today, I went to the Pamella Roland show and I LOVED it, the show is definitely one of my favorite. The designer was inspired by Classic Venetian glamor.

The show was pretty long because so many looks have been presented:  from asymmetrical wool shift dresses to glamorous beaded gowns. I loved the classy headbands, the furs, the hats, the red carpet gowns… EVERYTHING!

It was an amazingly elegant collection! At the end of the show, Pamella Roland walked with her children.

Eugena Washington for Project Runway’s Jerell

Saleisha Stowers for Pamella Roland

Dani Evans for Project Runway’s Korto

Bianca Golden for Project Runway’s Korto

Naima Mora for Project Runway’s Joe

This past week, Top Model contestants decided to take on fashion week’s star-studded runways for the ultimate plunge! Straight from Tyra’s factory, the models were looking better than ever with a fierce take on the modeling front. Five of the contestants, Naima, Saleisha, Bianca, Eugena and Dani, stomped their pumps down the catwalk in a confidence sure to win them bold success. Several of the models appeared in the Project Runway showcase featuring designs mended by the talented Korto, Jerell and Joe, while others modeled for names like Pamella Roland and others. Though this is probably their extent of work since the judging panel, I have to admit, they don’t look half-bad.
