New York Fashion Week

Kameryn Archary, Reporter

New York Fashion Week is held in February and September of every year. This event is held in Manhattan and spans from 7-9 days. International fashion collections are shown to buyers, the press, and the general public. First founded in 1943 by  Eleanor Lambert, the show began in Paris when marketers used to hire women to wear couture items in public places, from race tracks to beauty salons. Fashion Week was created as the best way to present American Fashion and emerging designers.
