THE 5 HARDEST AFTER PARTIES TO GET INTO FOR NEW YORK FASHION WEEK
You’ve seen plenty of information about all the events that are open to the public. But what about the parties that you can’t attend? These are the exclusive events that are reserved for industry insiders, supermodels, and celebrities, and One Concierge can get you inside.
Paper Magazine | Undisclosed Location
Each September, Paper Magazine releases its 1000 most beautiful people issue, and they celebrate by inviting all those same beautiful people to party with them during NYFW. There are tons of surprise live entertainment acts, A-list celebrity encounters, and DJs keeping the party going. In order to insure exclusivity, the ultra secret location is kept unknown except to those lucky few to receive an invitation, but it’s exactly where you want to be.
Last Year’s Attendees: T.I, Rick Ross, Juicy J, Travis Scott

Christian Siriano Afterparty | TBC
Not as grandiose as some of the other parties on the list, but just as exclusive, the guest list to Christian Siriano’s afterparty will be short and sweet. If you’re lucky to make the cut, expect delicious hors d’oeuvres and cocktails, a cool and casual atmosphere, and trendy music, without all the in-your-face paparazzi of the larger parties in town. Siriano is known for his down-to-earth style and has become an A-list favorite on the red carpet. This is one of the best parties for bumping shoulders with fashion-industry-leader friends of the former Project Runway star Siriano.
Last Year’s Attendees: Kelly Osbourne, Coco Rocha, Isabelle Furhman

Jeremy Scott Afterparty | Flash Factory
Following the new launch show of one of NYFW’s youngest, hippest brands, Jeremy Scott throws one of the best dance parties in New York at Flash Factory. You’ll want to take a break from the dancing to snap a few pictures at this party while surrounded by many of Instagram’s most recognizable faces. The music goes on until late in the morning, and the booze will be flowing from sponsors such as Svedka Vodka, so hopefully you don’t have any early a.m. runway shows to attend.
Last Year’s Attendees: Beckerman Twins, Ellen Von Unwerth, Mia Moretti, DJ Mazurbate

Nylon Magazine | TBC
The party is on when Nylon Magazine transforms the Meatpacking District hotspot Provocateur into a glitzy gala with A-listers such as Kylie Jenner in attendance. Even though the popular night club closed its doors this year, the new venue of choice is guaranteed to be just as glamorous. Last year, the event celebrated Minnie Mouse, but that was the only thing ‘mini’ about this party. Perrier-Jouët Champagne and Absolut Elyx provided delicious sips for relaxation. Nylon threw one of the most talked-about parties of last year’s Fashion Week, and this year’s version promises to be even hotter.
Last Year’s Attendees: Kylie Jenner, Tyga, Hailee Steinfeld, DJ Equal, D.R.A.M, Jordyn Jones

Harper’s Bazaar Icons Party | Plaza Hotel
The Harper’s Bazaar Icons Party is undisputedly the must-see party of New York Fashion Week. Celebrities, models, musicians, athletes, and designers all converge on the illustrious Plaza Hotel in Midtown to indulge in the ultimate luxury VIP event. The Weeknd, gracing the cover of September’s issue of Harper’s Bazaar, is confirmed to be playing at this year’s event. Other Icons expected to be in attendance include Grimes, Travis Scott, Miranda Lambert, and Courtney Love. With the high level of celebrity comes the assurance of exclusivity as well. The Icons Party is not only the most popular party in the Big Apple, but the most difficult to get in to.
Last Year’s Attendees: Kanye, Kim Kardashian, Kate Upton, Kendall Jenner, Pamela Anderson, Russel Westbrook
