The top trends showcased at New York Fashion Week was definitely one to remember. Designers such as Tom Ford, Thakoon, Rebecca Minkoff, and Ralph Lauren experimented with a “see-now-buy-now” format while majority of the designers gave people a chance to preview their clothing designs six months prior to them appearing in stores.
