mnyfw2.gifToday the CFDA kicked off the much-anticipated New York Fashion Week: Men's, the standalone male counterpart to NYFW. While we're definitely stoked that menswear is at last getting the attention it deserves, what we at PAPERMAG love even more than watching well-dressed men parade down the runway is a good party, and we know there'll be tons after the sun goes down during NYFWM. With so many options to choose from, we've put together a guide to the crème de la crème of NYC nightlife for the next week -- check it out below.

Monday, July 13th

NYFW Men's Launch Party.jpgWHAT: NYFWM Launch Party
EXPECT: Officially an exhibition of works by fashion photographer Erik Madigan Heck, it's unofficially one of the greatest industry networking opportunities you'll see this summer.

IMG Models Men's Division Party.jpgWHAT: IMG Models Men's Division Party
EXPECT: Beautiful people -- because what greater reason could you have for attending a party hosted by the world's largest modeling agency? In addition to music from NYC DJ collective The Misshapes, rising country music star Brett Eldredge will make a slightly incongruous -- but nontheless welcome -- appearance.

MADE x The Eighth Launch Party.jpg
WHAT: MADE x The Eighth Launch Party

WHAT: Charlotte Tilbury Limited Edition Collection Launch Party
EXPECT: Complimentary makeovers (in case you need to freshen up before hitting the party circuit later in the evening), champagne, and hors d'oeuvres at the launch of the British makeup artist's Norman Parkinson-inspired collection of bags and beauty products. If you're lucky, you might bump elbows with Tilbury herself as she works the floor to the sound of music from model and DJ Harley Viera-Newton.

RSVP: Invite only

Wilhelmina Brings Down the House V2.pngWHAT: Wilhelmina Brings Down the House at Marquee
EXPECT: If you didn't get your fill of absurdly attractive folks over at IMG on Tuesday, Wilhelmina's got your back. Hobnob with models as they celebrate the end of NYFWM -- it'll never get crazier than when a whole bunch of professional gorgeous people know they don't have work the next day.

John Varvatos Spring 2016 Afterparty.jpgWHAT: John Varvatos Spring 2016 Afterparty
EXPECT: Varvatos closes out NYFWM with one of the most heavily hyped shows of the week -- and the afterparty will be just as spectacular. In keeping with the designer's grunge/rock sensibilities, you won't find any EDM or trendy lounge settings at this event -- it's all bars and guitars, courtesy of John Varvatos Records signee Andrew Watt.
WHERE: Electric Room, 355 W. 16th St., Manhattan

RSVP: Invite only
