LFW and NYFW confirm September dates

The British Fashion Council and the Council of Fashion

Designers of America have confirmed their dates for September 2012 following the controversy of Milan changing its dates. New York Fashion Week will take place September 6-13, followed by London Fashion Week from September 14-18.

Both organisations confirmed in a short joint statement: ‘that they remain committed to finding a long term solution that would see a confirmed Fashion Season where brands and designer businesses in all four fashion capitals: New York, London, Milan and Paris can plan for the long term and when exceptional circumstances arise there is dialogue and empathy to find a solution that works for all’.

Milan Fashion Week will take place on September 19-25.
