Mayor Bloomberg Kicks Off Inaugural Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center

Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, Deputy Mayor Patricia E. Harris, Council of Fashion Designers of America President Diane von Furstenberg, IMG Chairman and CEO Ted J. Forstmann and Lincoln Center Chair Katherine Farley today kicked-off the inaugural Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center. The event will be held at Lincoln Center's Damrosch Park from September 9 to 16. Mayor Bloomberg unveiled a subway sign at the event, renaming the No. 1 line "The Fashion Line" for the duration of the week.



The semi-annual fashion events, previously held at Bryant Park, draw more than 230,000 attendees every year, generating more than $770 million in economic activity in New York City. Mayor Bloomberg, who rode the No. 1 subway to the announcement outside Lincoln Center, was also joined by Council Member Gail A. Brewer New York City Economic Development Corporation President Seth W. Pinsky, Parks & Recreation Commissioner Adrian Benepe and Lincoln Square Business Improvement District President Monica Blum.






Innovation and Design Shine at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week

Lincoln Center Fashion Shows Begin on Grand Scale

As doors open today to the new home of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at Lincoln Center it's clear that innovation and design play a key role in creating a space that revolutionizes the way fashion shows are experienced.

With a 30 percent larger venue then previous seasons in Bryant Park and just under 90 runway shows taking place from September 9-16, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week is fulfilling its mission to "organize, centralize and modernize" the American collections from designers showing this season including Diane von Furstenberg, Tommy Hilfiger, Narciso Rodriguez, Vera Wang, and this season's Mercedes-Benz Presents Designer, Carolina Herrera, who features her latest collection on September 13, 2010.
