Other details: Last night, some of New York's top fashion designers headed to Sugar Factory to celebrate eBay's Holiday Collective. The event highlighted the new collaboration between eBay and 5 designers: Mara Hoffman, Michael Bastian, MILLY by Michele Smith, Rachel Zoe, and Shipley & Halmos. They designers customized a limited edition bracelet in their own unique ways for guests to purchase on ebay.com. The bracelets are also a tech accessory, as they also contain USB functionality, so you can connect your phone to your computer or a charging device. The proceeds from the sale of the bracelets go to the CFDA, who's CEO Steven Kolb joined the designers at the event. Guests took turns filling up a carton with a wide variety of candy, and were also served Sugar Factory's signature cocktails and small bites. As a bonus, guests also walked away with a bracelet of their choosing.
