CFDA Releases Preliminary Schedule for NYFW Fall/Winter 2026 at Hudson Yards
The first list of the new fashion season is officially presented by the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), and the further snowball of fashion and style is on its way. CFDA releases preliminary schedule details confirming that the shows will run from February 11 to February 16, 2026. This season offers a strong combination of traditional heritage brands with new talent with the Proenza Schouler by Rachel Scott opening the American Collections. The news has been met with enthusiasm in the industry and harking back to the high-octane runways of physical shows after a phase of digital exploration, an American fashion capital of renewed energy is now felt.
Hudson Yards Hosting Key NYFW Fall/Winter 2026 Events
As the central hub for this season, Hudson Yards will once again serve as the primary backdrop for the most anticipated runway presentations. The high-tech facility of The Shed and the adjacent areas will be the home to the major designers, making the process of buying and the editors much smoother. This centralization is a key strategy for NYFW Fall/Winter 2026, allowing for seamless transitions between shows. While Ralph Lauren will present off-calendar on February 10, the core schedule anchored at Hudson Yards features heavyweights like Coach, Michael Kors, and Tory Burch, reinforcing the district’s status as the beating heart of New York’s fashion ecosystem.
