PROJECT TO HOST SPECIAL PRESENTATION DURING NYFW: MEN’S

by Stephen Garner

Menswear tradeshow Project will debut four fall/winter ’18 collections from luxury designer Michael Bastian Gray Label, functional clothing line W.R.K, sportswear brand M. Singer, and eco-friendly West Coast inspired label Faherty at a special presentation during New York Fashion Week: Men’s next week.

The gallery presentation format will feature 10 looks from each designer and will be held at Skylight Modern, located at 537 West 27th Street, on Monday, February 5 from 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm.

Tommy Fazio, men’s fashion director of UBM Fashion, selected each brand to lead the new direction of the trade show format by supporting American talent during New York Fashion Week. This initiative is an evolution of UBM Fashion’s newly formed partnership with the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) promoting the growth of emerging talent and the fashion industry as a whole.

“We are thrilled to have the platform outside of the trade show floor in New York to champion menswear talent who represent the best of American designers,” said Fazio. “Having had the privilege of working with each designer at Project, we are excited to assist in presenting their FW’18 collections by supporting CFDA’s NYFW: Men’s and NYMD.”

Additionally, Project will host a showcase of emerging talent as part of its partnership with New York Men’s Day (NYMD) on February 5. The six designer presentations will be held in two sessions from 10:30 am – 12:00 pm and 4:30 pm – 6:00 pm at Creative Drive Studios. Designers include TwentyMetricTons, Selected Homme, Raleigh Denim, Grayers, Serge Blanco, and Eden Park.
