Your guide to celebrating October 5 2029
Skip to all 17 daysOctober 5 has the makings of a very stylish mission: scout out great buildings in daylight, then disappear into a world of sharp suits, gadgets and cinematic espionage after dark.
Begin with World Architecture Day. Take a walk through your neighborhood or downtown and pay attention to the buildings you usually hurry past. Hunt for one memorable detail, perhaps an unusual roofline, a grand entrance or a clever mix of old and new. You could also see whether a nearby museum has an architecture exhibition or find a streamed talk from the Union International des Architectes. Share a photo of your favorite building and give its architect credit if you can.
Once the scouting is complete, Chic Spy™ Day handles the dress code. Pull on your sharpest spy-inspired outfit, even if that means adding one particularly suave jacket to your usual movie-night clothes. Set out a couple of cool gadgets as party props and practice entering the room as though someone just handed you a classified assignment.
