Opening and Closing Shows
The week will kick off with an afternoon show from Brandon Maxwell on February 6, and will end with a bang with Thom Browne’s final runway show on the evening of February 11. And that’s not all, we’ll also get to see collections from Christopher John Rogers, Altuzarra, Calvin Klein Collection by Veronic Leoni, Fforme, Lapointe, Norma Kamali, and Theory, who are all returning to the NYFW calendar after skipping out on previous seasons.
Notable Absences
While we’re excited for all the amazing shows and presentations, there are a few notable absences from the calendar. Proenza Schouler, Helmut Lang, Ralph Lauren, Tommy Hilfiger, Jason Wu, Wiederhoeft, and Willy Chavarria will not be showing this season. However, Chavarria will be presenting his Fall/Winter 2025 collection during Paris Fashion Week Men’s later this month.
CFDA’s Statement
Joseph Maglieri, CFDA’s Director of Fashion Week Initiatives, shared his thoughts on the upcoming season, saying, “NYFW serves as the premier opportunity for designers and brands to tell their story and share their work in the ways that speak to their communities and business needs. This upcoming season represents themes we see across the industry: calibration and innovation. It reminds us of the importance of brand sovereignty and stamina, and the significance of remaining authentic to where they are now in order to plan for where they want to be in the future.”
