It's the inevitable September cycle: Loads of fashion inspiration in the first half of the month, and then, a serious letdown once all the runway shows, parties, and pretty photos trickle to a halt (in America, anyway). Luckily, you can get a fashion fix this weekend that'll last you through the end of the year, with the return of All Access Fashion, the annual sartorial celebration at Tysons Galleria.
The event gets into full swing on Friday with a fall/winter '12 runway show presented by Intermix and hosted by Gossip Girl costume designer Eric Daman. Then, on Saturday, expect a full day of trunk shows; fashion presentations from the likes of Karen Millen, Ann Taylor, Nicole Miller, and Elie Tahari; and shopping with cocktails in hand. Now, doesn't that feel like old times?
When: Friday, September 28, at 7 p.m.; Saturday, September 29, noon to 9 p.m.
Where: Tysons Galleria, 2001 International Drive, McLean; 703-827-7730.
