Another American designer is skipping out on New York Fashion Week and
decamping to Paris for the upcoming haute couture presentations in July.
According to WWD, the designer’s eponymous label was scheduled to show on
Feb. 7 until the brand announced the shift away from New York week of
fashion month.
According to the announcement, the decision to move to Paris for the
designer’s next presentation stems from a desire to “pay homage to the city
that launched his design career.”
Scott is the most recent major designer to drop out of New York Fashion
Week for a new location, following the steps of Tom Ford, who is scheduled
to show on Feb. 7 in Los Angeles two days before the Academy Awards, and
Tommy Hilfiger, who will be showing in London. Other major labels opting
out of New York Fashion Week include Pyer Moss, Telfar, and Ralph
Lauren.
