September, Manhattan. It's not just a return to the city: it's the season when the Big Apple dresses up in dreams and turns the spotlight on itself. New York Fashion Week, dedicated to Spring/Summer 2026, is preparing to inaugurate Fashion Month. A new chapter filled with arrivals, returns, debuts and a scene that never ceases to amaze.

That's right, the symbolic opening of <a href="https://www.lofficielitalia.com/design/paul-du-prec-de-saint-maur-architetto" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Fashion Week</a> will bear the signature of Brandon Maxwell, who celebrates the tenth anniversary of his house with a tribute to American elegance. Shortly after, Michael Kors enters the scene and sets the pace with the precision that has always distinguished him: urban chic and timeless glamour.
But the most intense curiosity is for the debut of Nicholas Aburn , Area 's new creative director, called upon to redefine the brand's aesthetic with an almost disarming freshness. And that's just the beginning: New York Fashion Week will showcase the new collections of Veronica Leoni for Calvin Klein Collection and Frances Howie for Fforme, while Ib Kamara continues to expand the Off-White vocabulary.
Alexander Wang is making a big comeback. With "The Matriarch," the designer chooses Chinatown to make a powerful statement, both intimate and spectacular: a tribute to the femininity that inspired him and that promises to become the cult moment of the new season.
There's no shortage of returning names from long-established houses-from Altuzarra to Tory Burch, Coach, and Eckhaus Latta - alongside the buzz of new names. Young talents like Maria McManus , Amir Taghi, and the L'Enchanteur duo showcase an innovative style, proving that NYFW isn't just a time for celebration but also a creative outpost.
Sure, there are some notable absences: Ralph Lauren, Proenza Schouler and Thom Browne (who this time prefers Paris). But the void leaves room for new voices and fuels the feeling of being faced with a new, freer, at times anarchic edition.
<a href="https://www.lofficielitalia.com/moda/dkny-campagna-primavera-estate-2025-donna-lila-moss" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Fashion Week</a> 2025 promises to be a perfect balance between heritage and revolution: a stage that showcases not just clothes, but visions, stories, and identities. Because here, in the city that never sleeps, fashion is more than fashion: it's an act of presence, an urban manifesto, an invitation to rewrite tomorrow.
