Gabriela Hearst is set to present her first collection following her exit from Chloé in September 2023, while Monse, Lafayette 148, and Libertine make their return to the New York Fashion Week schedule this season. Other brands returning to NYFW include Delpozo, who will be staging a unique, by-appointment-only presentation to commemorate its 50-year anniversary.
In a much-anticipated international debut, Ludovic de Saint Sernin, stepping away from his role at Ann Demeulemeester, will present his eponymous brand in New York for the first time on February 11. This season also welcomes Bishme Cromartie, Callas, Colleen Allen, Jane Wade, and Meruert Tolegen, marking their first appearances on the official NYFW schedule.
