Interview Magazine is hosting Art Basel at Miami Beach this year, in honor of Interview’s 40th Anniversary they’ll be stocking the vending machine along with a number of chic and sophisticated partners. These products will be curated with unique and symbolic retail items to celebrate 40 years of pop culture; one of a kind creations, rare editions, new releases, cult classics and exclusive experiences.

The Semi-Automatic vending machine which is already in‐situ at the Mondrian Hotel South Beach since January 2009 is a dispenser of everything luxurious, it takes over an entire wall in the hotel lobby with a sleek and minimalist Japanese design by Ito Partnership. With just a swipe of a credit card, your items of desire are dispensed in sealed bags. My favorite items are the Subversive Jewelry for Dr. Martens (exclusively for Interview) $1400 (super duper hot) and the Vena Cava canvas shoes $20, I’m so tempted to go!

Fashion’s Night Out – September 10, 2009

According to WWD, next year’s Fashion’s Night Out has been rescheduled to September 10, 2010, instead of September 9.

The schedule switch was made so Fashion’s Night Out would not be held during Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and to maximize local consumer and tourist participation by holding the event on a weekend evening. The organizers also said they will work closely with the fashion industry to ensure the change in date will not disrupt the ongoing trade activities of fashion week and the shows during that time.
