Even IMG’s proposed fixes and potential barricades to keep fashion bloggers out might not be enough to keep designers interested in showing at the tents. Vera Wang, who has shown collections at Lincoln Center every year since Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week moved there, has decided to move her February show to an as-yet-to-be-disclosed location, WWD reports. Exciting for Wang to mix it up, but in the light of other loudly voiced complaints — including from Carolina Herrera, who is reportedly considering a similar change herself — who is going to end up showing at the tents for fall/winter 2014?
