New York Fashion Week starts Feb. 8, kicking off the year’s catwalk calendar. This will be followed by smaller events with more specialized themes throughout the year (eco-wear in Portland, sunwear in Miami, etc.) as well as regional events everywhere from Memphis to Phoenix bringing together buyers, retailers and the media. Get involved as a member of the organizing committee, a sponsor, host or collaborator. It’s your chance to meet new customers, find out what’s happening on the local fashion scene, and spread the word on international trends.
