NewYork Fashion Week September 2010

Only occurring two times over the span of twelve months

New York Fashion Week illuminated a different type of energy this go around.

Straying away from its usual Bryant Park location, the fall iteration of NYFW operated out of Lincoln Center. The event, which brings in the most stylish and fashionable people from every creek and pond of the world to New York City, would be impossible to define with one word.

This year's upcoming extravaganza - was scheduled from Thursday, September 9 to Thursday, September 16, 2010 - designers gather from around the world to exhibit their Spring 2011 collections.

As always, IMG remains the main driving force behind New York Fashion Week, with Mercedes Benz and Olympus alternately providing major sponsorship.

Twice yearly, the Big Apple goes out of its way to welcome high-powered media moguls and Hollywood movie stars who come to see, or be seen, at one of the planet's most celebrated fashion events that attracts over 100,000 attendees. Behind the scenes, a lucky handful of interns from city fashion schools, such as FIT or Parsons School of Design, toil as volunteers.

Local fashion fans, meanwhile, can tune in to watch full coverage on local channel TV 25 — which annually devotes more than 150 hours of coverage with nightly recaps all week long on special editions of Videofashion Daily.
