For the first time this season, CFDA has had eliminated the second Thursday of NYFW, which gives editors and buyers more time as they head to London, plan additional re-sees or prepare for their next fashion destination.
The week unofficially begins on Sept.6 when Tom Ford returns to show with an evening show. Narciso Rodriguez, Pamella Roland, and VFILES are among those presenting their collections earlier that day.
The season takes place from Sept. 7-13, with many notable moments on the schedule. It features the second outing of Raf Simons for Calvin Klein on the evening of Sept. 7. CFDA Member Jeremy Scott celebrates his brand’s 20-year anniversary the evening of Sept. 8. Fenty by Rihanna concludes a day of shows on Sept. 10, while Shayne Oliver presents his first collection for Helmut Lang on Sept. 11. On Sept. 12, Ralph Lauren is taking his guests to Bedford, NY to show his collection in his garage of rare – and legendary – automobiles, which he will follow with a private dinner.
Whilst Tommy Hilfiger will show in London, as Thom Browne, Altuzarra and Lacoste get to Paris, joined by ProenzaSchouler, Rodarte and Monique Lhuillier, who have also moved their shows there.
