Just after a whirlwind week of art events, Friday night brought a score of fashion happenings around town. From the S.Nine pop-up shop in Soho, to Korean heat-throb Rain gracing the MCM store opening, to the glow-in-the-dark jewelry of Tom Binns, the city was buzzing with activity.
S.Nine pop-up store opening
The night began on lower Elgin Street at the pop-up shop of the S.Nine brand. The N.Y. trained designer, Susanna Ngao was in attendance, presiding over the bustling store.

The well-attended opening included goodies typically only found at luxury events, such as customized cake lollipops!

Jewelry designer Tom Binns at On Pedder
With his creations adorning high-profile individuals such as Michelle Obama, jewelry designer Tom Binns is currently gaining lots of attention. At Friday’s event, On Pedder had installed a special dark room to view the designer’s necklaces in all their glow-in-the-dark glory.
Encountering a blue-light wearing one of his pieces would definitely generate conversation!
