| Chinese movie stars are shinning on the world fashion shows recent years, they represent the new force exerting the influence to the fashion world. The first New York Fashion Week was the world's first ever organized fashion week. First held in 1943, the event was designed to attract attention away from the French fashion during World War II, when fashion industry insiders were unable to travel to Paris to see French fashion shows. Fashion publicist Eleanor Lambert organized an event she called "Press Week" to showcase American designers for fashion journalists, who had previously neglected their innovations with hangtags. Press Week was a success, and fashion magazines like Vogue, which were normally filled with French designs, increasingly featured American fashion. In 1994, the event was moved to its former site in Bryant Park by Fern Mallis, where it was held inside a series of large white tents in the almost-block-long park. Admission is by invitation only, to the fashion industry, fashion press, assorted celebrities, and internet based Fashion press. B In the Vivienne Tam show, models walked the runway carrying Hewlett Packard mini notebook computers instead of the expected hangtags. Mercedes-Benz officially became the sponsor of the event, and New York Fashion Week was called "Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week" from then. The idea of using mannequins to display clothing was used by established designers Betsey Johnson and Vera Wang as a way to cut model and runway costs - even the mannequins themselves can be rented instead of bought. Mara Hoffman, Sergio Davila and Nicholas K saved 40 percent of their costs by combining their separate hangtags into one show. A number of pieces displayed were items that could be worn in the fall and carry over to the spring. A popular staple was bold color dressed that could be worn over a turtleneck in colder weather and stand alone in the spring; convertible blazers were introduced by Vera Wang and Karen Walker as a way to get double the wear out of one piece. |
