New York Fashion Week
History
The first New York Fashion Week, then called Press Week, was the world's first organized fashion week. Held in 1943, the event was designed to attract attention away from French fashion during World War II, when fashion industry insiders were unable to travel to Paris to see French fashion shows.[2]Fashion publicist Eleanor Lambert organized an event she called "Press Week" to showcase American designers for fashion journalists, who had previously neglected their innovations.[2] (Buyers
were not admitted to the shows and instead had to visit designers' showrooms.[2]) Press Week was a success, and fashion magazines like Vogue, which were normally filled with French designs, increasingly featured American fashion.[2]
In 1994, the event was moved to its former site in Bryant Park布莱恩公园, where it was held inside a series of large white tents in the almost-block-long park.[3]Admission is by invitation only, to the fashion industry, fashion press, assorted celebrities名人, and internet based Fashion press. Beginning in February 2009, many designers opted out of 决定不参加 their usual Bryant Park tent fashion shows because of the current economy and held smaller presentations.
Because of the recession affecting most of the world, designers were stepping outside of the box for fall 2009. In previous years, fashion houses would be expecting costs up to$750,000 t o produce a quality runway show发布会. The idea of using mannequins人体模型to display clothing was used by established designers Betsey Johnson and Vera Wang as a way to cut model and runway costs. Mara Hoffman, Sergio Davila and Nicholas K saved 40 percent of their costs by combining their separate lines into one show. Another trend seen during fall 2009 Fashion Week was recession friendly fashion. A number of pieces displayed were items that could be worn in the fall and carry over to 延续到the spring. A popular staple was bold color dressed that could be worn over a turtleneck圆翻领 in colder weather and stand alone in the spring; convertible可改变的 blazers运动夹克（ were introduced by Vera Wang and Karen Walker as a way to get double the wear out of one piece.
Due to increasing pressure from Bryant Park management, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week was hosted in Damrosch Park许公园 at the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts for the first time in September 2010.
