Today, commuters and visitors were doing a double take of the brightest stars of the fashion world while transiting through Lower Manhattan’s iconic Oculus.
Madame Tussauds and Westfield World Trade Center partnered together to celebrate the return of New York Fashion Week, and all things fashion!
Beneath the Oculus’s soaring roof, visitors enjoyed the unique opportunity to strut the dedicated runway and get close to Madame Tussauds legendary wax figures for incredible photo moments and selfies with Anna Wintour, Kendall Jenner, Alessandra Ambrosio, and Heidi Klum. The free experience opened earlier this morning to the public and will continue tomorrow Thursday, September 8th from 8:00am to 8:00pm.
In true Fashion Week style, the star’s high-fashion looks are turning heads! Anna Wintour is wearing her 2019 Met Gala ensemble, a pink floor-length gown with flowers and a matching, pink-feathered cape lined with blue feathers. Kendall Jenner is sporting an edgier look inspired from her appearance at the 2015 ESPYS with a down-to-the-floor black dress with sheer sleeves and cutouts. Dressed in her 2019 outfit from Cannes Film Festival, Alessandra Ambrosio is a showstopper in her asymmetrical red halter dress highlighting her legs that were born to sashay the runway. Heidi Klum takes us back to the 15th season finale of Project Runway, which also took place at New York Fashion Week 2016, with a white cape that featured a short collar and slits for her arms and decorated with an elaborate silver-and-gold beaded bird. The look is completed with gold thigh high boots.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Madame Tussauds to present visitors to the Oculus with a very unique experience” said Diana Grasso, Vice President, Unibail- Rodamco-Westfield. “Partnering with Westfield World Trade Center is so exciting as we bring our beloved experience outside of Times Square down to another heart of New York City,” expressed Tiago Mogadouro, Head of Marketing Madame Tussauds New York.
