QUINTESSENTIALLY ‘Pops Up’ on the Hudson during New York Fashion Week

News | February 9, 2011

QUINTESSENTIALLY, New York Fashion Week, Fashion Lounge

Fashion Week is literally one day away.  Soon enough you will see free copies of TheDaily handed out at every corner, street-style shots of the most ridiculous and the most fashionable attendees, and of course the many events being hosted in honor of one of the major weeks  in the fashion industry calendar.

For those looking for a place to escape to for deliciously curated food,  drinks that will take the edge off, and enjoy fashion while supporting fantastic charities, QUINTESSENTIALLY, the private members-only club, will host a variety of  events at their brand new charitable pop-up lounge—QUINTESSENTIALLY on Hudson.

You will have the opportunity to enjoy events (open to non-members as well) like  a casino night sponsored by Aspen Snowmass, fashion presentations, cocktail parties with enticing performances featuring talent provided by The Box, as well as a dinner and brunch curated by the chefs at The Fat Radish.   You will also get to sip QUITESSENTIALLY’s signature drink, the Q-tini, and other cocktails provided by Belvedere.

What’s the “charitable part”?  There will be daytime workshops focused around 5 different New York centric charities–Girls Quest, City Harvest, Project Renewal, The Trevor Project and MTV’S Staying Alive Foundation.  In addition, money will be raised throughout the week through suggested donations, last minute sponsorships and ticket sales.

QUITESSENTIALLY on Hudson is located at 632 Hudson St. (Between Horatio & Jane) New York, NY 10014 and will open Feb. 11 – 17.  The Art Deco Bar will open every day from 5 p.m. to 11:30 p.m.
