For a fun Tuesday or Thursday evening, check out Rose Bar's jazz nights. The bar is all about glitz and glamour, so it's the perfect excuse to throw on your more outrageous party dress and sky-high heels. Order a martini from the George Clooney-lookalike bartenders before dancing to the band of the night's tunes. Fashion week parties typically book out rooms upstairs for private events, so if you're not already on the list for an after-hours soiree, befriend your neighbours at the table next to yours to score an invite.

If you're on the hunt for a models-only hangout, look no further. Housed above Cipriani's in SoHo, this bar is designed like a chic pre-Revolution Cuban home, kitted out with everything from velvet chaises to banana trees. Since Bella and Kendall will most likely be chit-chatting over Cuba Libres inside, make sure you pull out all the stops when dressing up before taking on the tough front door staff.

Despite opening a few years ago, The Blond has managed to maintain its hype among New York's movers and shakers. An anomaly amid a sea of other shooting-star venues that quickly fizzle out, this sleek spot at the 11 Howard Hotel continues to draw in models and moguls every night. Come fashion week, it's a complete blow-out - expect to bump into everyone you know who's in the city. Grab a Moscow Mule and sidle up to the DJ booth alongside friends old and new.
