The Council of Fashion Designers of America has launched runway 360, an online platform that will make it easy for designers to access the runway all year.
The virtual platform will enable designers to show their collections in a variety different ways. This includes live streaming, selling some pieces via ecommerce, hosting virtual press conferences, and creating showrooms.
Steven Kolb is the president and chief operating officer of CFDA. In an interview to WWD, he stated, "We're aiming at being a one-stopshop for fashion." The platform will include all aspects of a designer’s business, including sales, press, activations, and shows.
Runway 360 was launched in an attempt to connect designers and colleagues during a time when the fashion industry has been ravaged by the Covid-19 pandemic. The platform will be launched by the CFDA at NYFW in September. Designers can create their own pages and share their digital activations.
According to a spokesperson of the CFDA this platform will be AR/VR capable, as well live video streams and ecommerce extensions. It will also feature social media integrations and consumer-shopping features.
Consumers will also be able buy selected pieces from the platform at discounts. This will enable brands to retain their customers and increase customer loyalty. It also gives them the opportunity to offer more clothing options to their subscribers.
Frederick Anderson, who exhibited runway designs last night and was streamed live to runway 360, says "It's great way to communicate with customers and keep them engaged." He estimates that more than 10,000 people viewed the runway event, and he expects it to grow over time.
It is open to consumers, brands, and trade. Every user will experience a unique experience, depending on their profile.
Marchesa Notte spring 2019 will be on the runway 360 of the CFDA as a member. American Express' ecommerce shop Shop Runway 360 will have the brand's merchandise available to cardholders.
Cardholders can enjoy a variety of exclusive experiences on the CFDA's platform. These include conversations about diversity, equality, inclusion, female founders, and sustainability. A Potts Studio, Jonathan Cohen Studio, Studio 189 and Studio 189 will give behind-the-scenes insights and looks into the creative process.
Meanwhile, a number of designer-owned brands are using the platform to showcase their latest collections, such as Naeem Khan, Private Policy, Victor Li and Adeam. The CFDA allows cardholders of a card to pre-purchase runway look from current collections. Card members also get a range discounts on accessories.
While it's not the same as a physical runway show, the platform is a step toward inclusivity and democracy for the design world. Because the platform is open to all, it allows designers to share their work. It's an important step towards the ongoing conversation on gender inequality and how to make our fashion industry more equitable.

How to Style Clothes

When styling yourself, the most important thing is to keep it simple and easy. If you want to look good, don't go overboard trying to find something to wear that fits perfectly. Instead, pick out whatever looks good on you, whether a shirt, pants, jacket, skirt, etc. Put it all together to create one outfit. It doesn't matter how many pieces you have, so long as they're coordinated well. You can also mix and match colors and patterns to make different outfits.
Accessories can be used to complete any outfit. Accessories are often small, like scarves or hats, rings, necklaces and earrings, bracelets, bracelets, and even purses. These accessories can give your outfit some personality and help make it stand out. When shopping for accessories, think about what colors complement your clothing and which ones contrast with it.
