New York Fashion Week: Men’s kicked off in the Big Apple on Tuesday, bringing with it four days of energetic shows and cutting-edge fashion. Editors, buyers, and street-style stars turned up in droves to New York’s show spaces to support some of their favorite menswear designers, including Landlord’s Ryohei Kawanishi, Feng Chen Wang, and Neil Grotzinger, who presented his debut collection for Nihl. Very noticeably missing was Raf Simons, who recently decided to relocate his show to Paris. Read on for some of the highlights from Men’s New York Fashion Week below.
