Racked is no longer publishing. Thank you to everyone who read our work over the years. The archives will remain available here; for new stories, head over to Vox.com, where our staff is covering consumer culture for The Goods by Vox. You can also see what we’re up to by signing up here.
Certain themes emerge as you look over the planned festivities. Barneys and Bloomingdale's 59th Street are both hosting ping-pong tournaments with designers. (We're guessing—or at least hoping—that Sam Shipley and Jeff Halmos really love the game, since they're appearing at both locations.)
Barneys is also doubling up with Bergdorf on karaoke. Those who enjoy public humiliation can sing at Barneys in front of judges Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen and Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough of Proenza Schouler; those who get more out of the humiliation of others should head uptown to Bergdorf to watch designers like Cynthia Rowley, Nicholas Kirkwood, and Norma Kamali take a turn at the mic.
As the big night approaches, we'll be counting down our top picks for where to go for the best celebrities, music, giveaways, contests, and more. But if you want to get an early jump on the planning and the FNO website gives you a headache, check out the Cut's guide to all the biggest highlights.
