Last Tuesday, April 24th, celebrities, socials and chic New York shoppers gathered at the H&M 5th Avenue Flagship store to celebrate the success of NBC's "Fashion Star". The event was hosted by "Fashion Star" mentors, Nicole Richie and John Varvatos, with DJ Mia Moretti spinning beats all night long.

Among the attendees were the shows buyers, including H&M's Nicole Christie as well as select designers from the show. Guests were able to shop the winning designs, from the Monday episode the night before, and get 25% off their purchases while enjoying hors d'oeuvres and signature cocktails.
