Anna Wintour (along with Mayor Bloomberg and the CFDA) officially announced the return of Fashion's Night Out yesterday with Wintour saying she was "absolutely bowled over by the response" to her 2009 open-to-all street party/fashion event.
The focus for 2010 will be to attract new participants (there were over 800 stores open late during the 2009 event) and to expand the festivities beyond the U.S. and into other international cities where Vogue is published—specifically London, Milan, Berlin, Athens, Madrid, Moscow, Taipei, Tokyo, Sao Paulo, New Delhi, and Beijing.
Pulling off such a major city-wide initiative is the main reason Wintour was recently named one of the 12 most powerful people in New York by New York magazine, and we're pretty sure she'll prove Fashion's Night Out can be bigger and better in 2010.

Anna Wintour hosted an annual event for the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund finalists Wednesday night in her West Village townhouse. The ten designers gather chez Wintour to showcase fashion fund-sponsored design projects and mingle with past finalists and current CFDA members.
This year Google's Marissa Mayer was the guest of honor, as each finalist was challenged with designing pieces inspired by the Google search engine. (In 2008 and 2009 the project was sponsored by L'Oreal Paris color cosmetics.)
Designers arrived with models (Alexa Adams and Flora Gill of Ohne Titel with Dree Hemingway) and actresses (Waris Ahluwalia of House of Waris with Rose Byrne) to show off their one-of-a-kind creations. George Esquivel dressed Kemp Muhl in colorful "Google shoes" with search box back tags, and Wayne Lee designed a neoprene vest that could carry a 15 inch laptop.
The event was also attended by Vena Cava's Sophie Buhai and Lisa Mayock, Rogan Gregory, Thom Browne, Rachel Roy, Vera Wang, Patrick Robinson, and Georgina Chapman.
