New York Men’s Day confirmed on Tuesday that it will return to in-person shows in September.

As part of the New York Fashion Week (NYFW) calendar, the bi-annual initiative intended to help nurture emerging talent and consolidate the showing of contemporary menswear collections, will once again feature ten menswear brands in a group presentation format over two-hour periods. 

The showcase created by Agentry PR, will host five designers debuting in the morning and five designers showing in late afternoon, on Sept. 8, from 10:30 a.m. to noon and then 4:30 to 6 p.m., at Canoe Studios in the Starrett-Lehigh building.

Set to showcase their spring 2022 collections of men’s wear or genderless clothing, the lineup includes eight returning designers and two new faces: A.Potts, Carter Young, Chelsea Grays, Fried Rice, KoH T, Onyrmrk, Stan, Teddy Vonranson, The Stolen Garment and William Frederick. 

In February of 2020, the men’s shows were a total of three days before it went straight into the women’s shows during New York Fashion Week. The last showcase took place on February 15 with a virtual approach and 11 designers.

Meanwhile, the Fifth Avenue Association is set to host NYFW runway shows and events at a new three-story venue. Located at 608 Fifth Avenue, the venue will be transformed into a runway and presentation space, for brands and designers to take the stage September 8-12.
