Showcasing at an entirely new space, Canoe Studios, located on the Westside of Manhattan between Chelsea and Midtown, NYMD will debut two new emerging brands, in addition to eight returning designers, who will exhibit their respective spring/summer 2022 collections. Conceived to nurture emerging talent and to consolidate top menswear/genderless designers in an easy-to-view venue, NYMD will feature all ten designers collectively. Each participating designer will present in his/her/their individual studio space designed to highlight the labels identity and inspiration. Taking place simultaneously over two-hour periods, five designers will present in the morning session, and five in the late afternoon.

In addition to the physical event, all 10 brands will also feature their spring/summer 2022 collection lookbook images and/or videos on the CFDAs RUNWAY360 digital platform.
