Conceived to nurture emerging talent and to consolidate top menswear/genderless designers in an easy-to-view venue, NYMD features 10-12 designers collectively. Each participating designer presents in an individual studio space designed to highlight the label’s identity and inspiration. Taking place simultaneously over two-hour periods, 10-12 brands will present for the entire day, five designers in the morning session and five in the late afternoon. The format of showcasing all presentations simultaneously creates ease-of-flow for media, buyers, influencers, and VIPs, allowing them to move through studios and spend time with designers.
NYMD draws a diverse and influential large audience, including fashion industry insiders, buyers, stylists and editors. Designers selected to participate in the event will receive extensive media coverage, a chance to meet and showcase their work to potential buyers, and an opportunity to network with industry professionals. NYMD covers the cost of 85% of presentation costs for each chosen designer.
The New York Men’s Day committee for this season includes stylist Memsor Kamarake, Editorial Creative Director of Complex Media Aria Hughes, Editor-in-Chief of Grazia USA Joseph Errico, and Nordstrom’s Men’s Fashion and Editorial Director Jian DeLeon.
