Bye Bye Bryant Park

After years of runways shows taking place on the Bryant Park lawn, this year was the first to host New York Fashion Week at Lincoln Center. For the past 10 years, just about every show I’ve done took place in Bryant Park. Considering that it was a few blocks east of the hustle and bustle of Times Square, being at Bryant Park provided a cool chic downtown vibe. I found a few old pictures that I've collected from previous years of working New York Fashion Week.

The new Lincoln Center location created a mellow and relaxed vibe. Being further north of the city at Lincoln Center placed the tents off the hectic path of the city’s main traffic flow of both cars and trains. Instead of the shows taking place inside the halls of Lincoln Center, the tents were set up on the lawn of Damrosch Park within Lincoln Center.
