New York City hosts two major "Super Bowls of Fashion" with the big names of fashion unveiling their fall designs in February, and their spring collections in September.

The upcoming 2012 New York fashion extravaganzas are scheduled from Thursday, February 9 to Thursday, February 16, 2012 (Fall/Winter 2012 collections) and again from Thursday, September 13 to Thursday, September 20, 2012 as designers gather from around the world to exhibit their Spring/Summer 2013 collections.

The Skinny on Fashion Week 2012

Last year, the city made good on its promise to provide a newer, bigger showcase to house the biannual event, moving away from the traditional tents at Bryant Park which had been home to New York Fashion Week since 1993.

Commencing in September 2010, New York Fashion Week moved to Damrosch Park at the Lincoln Center complex, home to the renowned Metropolitan Opera house and American Ballet Theatre.

The entrance and facade, which is 60 feet wide and 70 feet high, is located in the corner between the Metropolitan Opera House and David H. Koch Theater.

Attendees enter on a red carpet into the lobby, which includes a schedule of the day's events digitally projected on the walls. What was the Tent at Bryant Park is now the Theatre at Lincoln Center, a 969-seat venue with a larger backstage area.

As always, IMG remains the main driving force behind New York Fashion Week, with Mercedes Benz and Olympus alternately providing major sponsorship.

Twice yearly, the Big Apple goes out of its way to welcome high-powered media moguls and Hollywood movie stars who come to see, or be seen, at one of the planet's most celebrated fashion events that attracts over 100,000 attendees. Behind the scenes, a lucky handful of interns from city fashion schools, such as FIT or Parsons School of Design, toil as volunteers.
