Up and Coming

Cant make it out to the Hamptons this memorial day? Here are some fashionable (and recessionista friendly!) alternatives for your national holiday:

RICHARD AVEDON FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBIT
where: International Center of Photography (1133 6th Ave), 212.857.0000
what: displaying a selection of Avedons shots from Vogue covers to jumping models, the exhibit will feel like you're flipping through your favorite glossy, only in public. and not in your pjs. Break out your Sunday Prada, because there's sure to be a lot of sartorialists in attendance.
when: all day, but call the ICP for hours.

JAPAN BRAND POP UP STORE
where: Felissimo Design House (10 W 56th St), 212.956.4438
what: we mentioned it in yesterday's post but nothing says memorial day like shopping for japanese designs.
when: 11-6

JOHN LENNON EXHIBIT CURATED BY YOKO ONO
where: Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Annex NYC, 76 Mercer St between Broome and Spring Sts
what: titled "John Lennon: the New York Years" displays photographs and memorabilia from John Lennon's life as manhattanite. Sure, he's from london, but if he's not the epitome of the ultimate New Yorker, then we're not sure where else to turn.
when: 11-10pm

MODEL AS MUSE EXHIBIT AT THE MET
where: the met tisch gallery floor 2
what: We didnt get to go to the Gala, so we're definitely not missing the chance to catch the exhibit!
