Big changes are afoot for New York Fashion Week. After February, the official event will move from its main location at Lincoln Center, following a legal dispute over its use of a nearby city park. The main sponsor, Mercedes-Benz, has pulled out and WME-IMG, the company that owns and produces NYFW, is set to acquire MADE Fashion Week, which stages shows in and around Milk Studios and is considered a competitor to the main event.
