Payless ShoeSource announced its participation in New York City's Fashion's Night Out created by Vogue, the Council of Fashion Designers of America, the City of New York and NYC & Company to promote retail, restore consumer confidence, and celebrate fashion in NYC. The nation's leading specialty footwear retailer dedicated to democratizing fashion in footwear and accessories announced today its participation to help bring shoppers out for a fantastic night of shopping, style advice, celebration and great fun!
The Payless program will include late-night shopping events, from 8-10 p.m., hosted by Payless Guest Designers Christian Siriano, Lela Rose and Patricia Field at three New York City stores: 716 Lexington Ave., 437 Fifth Ave. and 513 Broadway in Soho, respectively. The events are unique to each store and each designer. As part of Fashion's Night Out, on September 10 various retailers throughout the five boroughs will stay open until 11 p.m. including these three Payless stores.
