The Atrium
Beautiful free PUBLIC space with many private restaurants (that have limited f any, seating). The chairs, tables, and booths are available for anyone so it's a bit first come first serve.
The Museum at FIT
This is FIT's fashion design and construction museum in Chelsea. It's open on weekends (starting on Thurs), and has free entry.
The exhibits vary and change often.
Re: May exhibit
The museum is tastefully curated with designers through the ages. They even have Anne Lowe and one of her debutante ball gowns on display! She designed dresses for *First Lady Jackie O Kennedy* and other socialites, and it's easy to see why. See the stunning white gown embellished with white appliques in the pictures attached.
The environment is low-lit and has cool temperatures to preserve the integrity of the materials. *Flash photography is also prohibited for this reason.*
Re: May exhibit
Enjoy the intricate details, flounces, sequins, and drapery constructed meticulously from fine fabrics and more modern materials like denim. The garments are accompanied by placards with info about the designers and their sensibilities.
You can easily spend about 20 mins (to an hour, depending on the exhibit) viewing the 2 galleries (even more if you're a design aficionado!). The museum is situated on Fashion Institute of Technology's college campus, a corner of Chelsea with stylish flair.
No luggage, food, beverages, videos, or flash photography allowed.
