HISTORY OF FASHION WEEK
During World War II, American fashion buyers and press weren’t able to travel to Paris
to see the latest fashion shows, so a fashion insider in the U.S. organized a similar
event for American designers to show their clothing lines.

February
The spring shows are held the summer before, usually late summer, in September.

TRENDS
A. Do most designers feature a certain look?
Most of it all looks the same, but they have that 1 thing on each designer that makes the look “different”.
B. How do runway looks compare to what you and your friends are wearing now?
They are more high class, and expensive. They look more like something a regular person would wear on the streets, but more like what the stars and famous people would wear on a daily basis.
