Why Fashion Week Is Important, And How It Could Be Better - NYFW Spring 2014 This New York Fashion Week went off with the usual highs, lows and PR drama, but it started on an unhappy tone. Fern Mallis, the former doyenne of Fashion Week at Bryant Park, along with other fashion world insiders, took to the New York Times the day before shows to rain on the NYFW parade before it had even begun.
