Note: The Ultimate Fashion Giveaway is now closed to entries.

Now that The Ultimate Fashion Giveaway contest is well underway (and in the spirit of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week), we thought we’d suggest some fabulous uses for your MasterCard card at Time Warner Center. After all, each time you use your card, you get to enter the contest! And who wouldn’t want more than one chance to win a dream trip to Paris?

For your consideration, fashionistas: one of Miriam Salat‘s gorgeous new Starry Nights collection items (which just launched Feb. 16); a pair of catwalk-worthy heels at Stuart Weitzman (we’re completely obsessed with the python Platswoon pump in Harvest Sunset Napa); or perhaps a luxurious lunch at one of our Restaurant and Bar Collection locations to treat yourself after all the on-the-go eating between stints at the Lincoln Square tents? The possibilities are endless!

Remember, through Feb. 29, anytime you use your MasterCard card at The Shops at Columbus Circle, you can bring your same-day receipts to our Guest Services desk and enter to win one of two incredible prizes! Here’s the skinny:

• GRAND PRIZE: Paris Shopping Experience

Two winners and their guest will be flown round-trip to Paris for four days and three nights. Each winner will receive a $5,000 pre-paid MasterCard card and their guest will receive a $500 pre-paid MasterCard card.

And what trip to Paris would be complete without indulging in a full A-list itinerary, including a champagne welcome reception, a guided tour of Paris, a private shopping experience with a personal stylist, dinner in a trendy Parisian restaurant, a professional makeover and photo shoot in front of Paris’ iconic landmarks and dinner atop the Eiffel Tower at the acclaimed Jules Verne restaurant?

• FIRST PRIZE: Personal Shopping Experience

Five winners and their guest will win a three-day, two-night trip to New York City and receive personalized shopping services at The Shops at Columbus Circle. The package includes a shopping experience with a personal shopper and lunch at Landmarc for the winner and their guest.

The luxurious consultation will include clothing that’s pre-pulled for you and set aside (analyzing and evaluating which outfits and trends work best for you and your lifestyle) and a “look book” of styles to take home with you.
