RESOURCE GUIDE FOR DESIGNERS


WALK OF FAME:
The Fashion Walk of Fame honors New York’s most influential designers and is the world’s first and only monument to American fashion to date.

DISTRICT TOURS:
About the District & the Industry

Mike City Tours offers a historic walking tour of the Fashion District during which visitors can visit a showroom, a factory, significant fashion area artwork, and more! Tours are generally two hours long and cover topics such as production, the immigrant labor force, the history of sizes, significant historic events, and current industry standards.

FASHION MUSEUMS
Get inspired by viewing the crème de la crème of couture on display at some of the most fashionable exhibitions in town.
SAMPLE SALES
You asked for it! The Fashion District is an ideal place to snatch up some designer duds at heavily discounted prices. View up-to-date listings for sample sales in the neighborhood. All sales are within easy walking distance from one another so you won’t even need to change into frumpy footwear!
