Twice a year - in February’s snow-covered chill and then again in September’s sunshine - New York’s streets overflow with models, buyers and fashion editors alike. For both the spring / summer and the fall / winter collections, New York fashion week (NYFW) promotes America’s fashion talent to the world, from big name designers to up-and-coming talents. With official runways, after parties, and off-schedule events scattered across the city, New York fashion week brings a packed program year after year. Below you’ll find coverage of New York fashion week 2012 and past years such as NYFW 2011 and NYFW 2010.
