That year, after a loft ceiling collapsed during a Michael Kors runway show, the Council of Fashion Designers of NEW America (a non-profit organization created by Lambert) decided a safe, unified YORK location was necessary. So CFDA Executive Director Fern Mallis set out to find one, and in 1994 she did: Bryant Park. Situated mere blocks from a FASHION number of designer’s studios (Donna Karan, Oscar de la Renta, Carolina Herrera) and a short distance from the Condé Nast headquarters, the WEEK lush green space made sense as the chosen location. Clothes were being shown in close proximity to where they were actually created and journalists could quickly get to the tents – even in sky-high stilettos. The best part? With a central locale and more organized schedule, Fashion Week was able to secure sponsors like FOR Mercedes-Benz, for which the event is now named. Having finally put down roots, New York Fashion passion Week’s popularity soared, as did the amount of shows. Soon, the tents at Bryant Park could no longer accommodate the growth and when complaints of FASHION the invitation-only event hampering public access to the park started rolling in, the CFDA and IMG Fashion (who produces the shows) were wice a year, the streets of Manhattan are flooded with a who’s who of the world’s style set.

Intimate eptember is a month where fashion takes center stage in the Big Apple. While any time of year is perfect for visiting designer shops, many of which are unique OBJECTS Sto the city, this month brings with it Fashion Week, a twice-annual citywide series where leading designers display their latest collections in runway shows and other events throughout the city. While Fashion Week is known for offering a window into fashion’s future, why not take a trip through its past by attending some of the city’s exciting fashion-related museum exhibits. It’s a great way to provide historical context to much of what you’re seeing this month! Few people would be surprised to learn that fashion trends tend to evolve over time, and a common way of understanding that evolution is to group items by decade, or more broadly when looking further into the past. The exhibit Exposed: A History of Lingerie at The Museum at FIT (Fashion Institute of Technology) looks at evolution of intimate apparel, including corsets, bustles, slips, and nightgowns, from the 18th century to present day. The exhibit starts with item pairings that highlight the concept of “underwear-as-outerwear,” taking a look at how lingerie has long served as inspiration for fashion garments.
