Since acquiring the Fashion Calendar in October 2014, the CFDA has been the sole organizer of the official NYFW calendar. Originally founded in 1945 by publisher Ruth Finley, the Fashion Calendar, now digital, serves as the premier year-round scheduling and event planning tool for fashion designers, press, retailers, public relations firms and the industry in general.

Starting in 2022, the CFDA created a NYFW Travel Fund to raise awareness about the importance of NYFW's cultural, artistic and economic impact. Now in its sixth season, the fund has supported nearly 44 international publishers to date with financial and in-kind support made possible through brand contributions and strategic partnerships.

“NYFW serves as the premier opportunity for designers and brands to tell their story and share their work in ways that fit their communities and business needs. This upcoming season represents themes we see across the industry: calibration and innovation,” said Joseph Maglieri, Director of CFDA Fashion Week Initiatives.

The CFDA is a nonprofit trade association founded in 1962 with a membership of more than 350 of America's leading women's clothing, men's clothing, jewelry and accessories designers.
