Michael Kors has announced that he has opted out of New York Fashion Week, which is now scheduled this year for week commencing September 14.
“I have for a long time thought that the fashion calendar needs to change, it’s exciting for me to see the open dialogue within the fashion community about the calendar – from Giorgio Armani to Dries Van Noten to Gucci to YSL to major retailers around the globe – about ways in which we can slow down the process and improve the way we work. We’ve all had time to reflect and analyse things, and I think many agree that it’s time for a new approach for a new era.” – Kors said in a statement.
