Among the notable participants are Prabal Gurung, Proenza Schouler, Alice + Olivia, Jason Wu, Altuzarra and Brandon Maxwell. A show by The Blonds will round out the event on the final day.

Next to the shows, the Black in Fashion Council Showrooms will be presented by Rakuten and will house the likes of Ciara Chyanne, Fumi The Label, Kaphill, Korlekie, Khoi, Kilentar, Lurelly, Onalaja, Tia Adeola and Tejahn Burnett.

Meanwhile, NYFW: The Talks will also be returning to the roster, starting September 10 with a talk on ‘From Destinations to Design: Travel’s Influence on Fashion’, a panel which will see the inclusion of Proenza Schouler’s Jack McCollough and designer Lazaro Hernandez.

Another topic to be covered in a panel is ‘Battle of Versailles 50: The Making of Fashion History’ presented by Anne Klein, where Stephen Burrows, Donna Karan, Alva Chinn and Pat Cleveland will participate.
