Here at chez Chic, we're in full-on NYFW mode: caffeinated, multitasking, and show schedule plotting accordingly! (As if you'd expect anything else! We've got so much delightful Daily-ness coming your way in less than two weeks, it's mildly insane.) So obviously, nothing sounds better than an "Inside Haute" package at The Carlyle, which kicks off on February 15 and runs through the post-NYFW weekend for those of us not bound for London (and then Milan...followed by Paris...). What's on the docket? Cocktails at Zac Posen's atelier, lunch with Donna Karan at her gorge Urban Zen spread downtown, a private tour of the Met's plum fashion archives, tea with Nadja Swarovski at the company's Gotham HQ, and bubbly with Sophie Theallet at her atelier. Divine! We'd probably pass on extra field trips to the tents for a trio of Fall '12 shows also included in the package, since Chic spends enough time hopping from Lincoln Center to MILK and everywhere in between. Just kidding! Let's be real, we'll probably be there, too. The bigger question is, anyone want to finance some much-needed R&R for Chic with a $795 room (or $1,900 suite for the luxe types)? Call The Carlyle at 212-570-7127 to get booking, darlings!
