Watch: Five Things About New York Fashion Week

The Big Apple is about to be bombarded by fashionistas! 

As New York Fashion Week officially kicks off tomorrow, we wanted to fill you in on what exactly goes down during this action-packed seven-day event.

Zanna Roberts Rassi is giving a breakdown of all of the important tidbits you absolutely need to know about.

The Marie Claire senior fashion editor and E! News fashion correspondent is certainly no stranger to the style scene, and she's buzzing with plenty of interesting factoids regarding the star-studded extravaganza.

For example, she reports that over 250 fashion shows and presentations will take place, with an estimated $816 million pumped into Manhattan during that time.

Wow!

Other highlights include the Phillip Lim for Target collaboration debut (finally!) and the very first plus-size fashion show from Eden Miller. Pretty major, if you ask us!

And of course, when the work is done, we're totally ready to play!

Roberts has a pulse on all of the cool parties occurring during the week, including a Dior bash hosted by Jessica Biel at Saks Fifth Avenue, as well as a Calvin Klein event to launch their new Downtown fragrance with Rooney Mara as their cover girl this fall.
