It's the most wonderful time of the year: Summer dwindles to a close, the boiling stench of Manhattan becomes slightly less putrid, and suddenly the streets are lined with stick people and glittering with cocaine. Why, it's time for Fashion Week!

But how best to celebrate? Does the thought of being herded like malnourished cattle into an overheated, overlit Bryant Park "tent" make you want to stab yourself in the eye with a kitten heel? Don't fret, for there's a better way. For a mere $995 (that's under a thousand dollars!), you can stay one glorious night in a suite at the W Hotel, plus score 2 VIP tickets to a major Fashion Week show, 2 passes to the W VIP lounge, and 2 cocktails at the W lounge. And those 2 cosmos (that's what they drink at big city fashion shows, right?) will put on you on the path to such a crazy night, you'll surely take advantage of the special 3 PM late check-out.

Or, if you're on a budget, you can just stay home, blow a few rails, make a toilet paper bridal gown, and have your own private Heatherette show.
