Runway 7 Fashion

Runway 7 Fashion turns Times Square into a launchpad during New York Fashion Week, connecting designers, brands, models, media, and buyers through runway shows and industry opportunities. The platform earns high marks for well-organized events and exposure for designers, models, and photographers, though the excitement comes with a catch: casting lines run long, and this year’s audition process got easier only after adding mandatory comp cards and runway experience. Behind the scenes, organizers have already eliminated 6,000 models prior to casting, keeping competition fierce even as they treat those who remain with genuine care.
