Plan B

Plan B

French Connection held a “British Invasion” online sweepstakes, in which the lucky winner and a guest were flown to NYC to attend the Plan B concert (with support from Janelle Monae and Bruno Mars) at Roseland Ballroom. The winner was also treated to a shopping spree at our SoHo flagship store to boot. Our winner (and birthday girl!) Kristin from Park City, Utah, got VIP access backstage with man of the evening Plan B. All three performers brought down the house and drew some famous celebrity guests…we spotted Mick Jagger in the crowd!

The Heat Is On

This week the heat is on Manhattan’s eclectic SoHo neighbourhood.

Angelika

Watch The Angelika Film Center is home to an impressive and diverse mix of independent films and has become one of the most successful and recognized arthouse cinemas in the country.

Balthazar

Crosby

Sleep Hidden on a quiet cobbled street is the Crosby Street Hotel, known as much for its afternoon tea and Sunday Night Film Club as for its private garden and fresh contemporary style.
