If anyone deserves a night out on the town, it would be Fashion. The last few years, she has regularly dealt with being put in the corner for timeout and being bent over backward for a spanking by the economy — which she never deserved. She's constantly working, evolving to the needs of others. She puts in late nights on the scene and rises early to be ahead of the game.

So on Thursday, Sept. 8, the world is celebrating Fashion with the 3rd Annual Fashion's Night Out, and it promises to be a good night.

Here locally, lotus owner Effie Loukas is bringing Charlotte Fashion's Night Out to the Metropolitan. The list of participating boutiques is extensive — 23 local shops will be hosting celebrations throughout the day. That night, though, they'll all come together at the Met for one big fall fashion show, which promises to be colorful, stylish and straight-up eye candy for the fashion lover in all of us.

Standing room tickets are $25 in advance, $30 at the door. VIP tickets are $100. All proceeds from the event will go to Zero Cancer — Great Prostate Challenge 2011. Tickets go on sale tomorrow, Aug. 11, at www.bandtastic.com.
