There's no escaping the fact that New York Fashion Week isn't what it used to be. Over the last few seasons, New York has lost quite a few designers. Whether due to brands shuting down or designers opting to show in other cities and the pandemic certainly didn't help matters. This season, some brands made a grand return to the Big Apple. Like Calvin Klein (courtesy of new creative director Veronica Leoni), Christopher John Rogers, Theory and Norma Kamali. Obviously, the more shows, the more street style. Which is probably why there are so many quality New York Fashion Week Fall 2025 street style looks.
First off, we need to give a special shout-out to the models. Often the unsung heroes of the week, they're frequently treated as footnotes since they're just slipping on looks to take them from the venue to their method of transportation. This time around, models really upped their game. From dramatically outsize scarves to street style photographer-stealing fluffy coats. That's not to say that the editors, buyers and influencers didn't throw their stylish hats into the ring. It just means the models took things up several notches.
