Fashion Week is approaching, and the collection shouldn’t be the only story coming down the runway.
A fashion show creates multiple opportunities for press beyond reviewing the clothes themselves.
🪡The designer’s story.
🪡The inspiration behind the collection.
🪡Craftsmanship and technique.
🪡Cultural influences.
🪡Materials and sourcing.
🪡Collaborations.
🪡Brand milestones and growth.
Each can become a different media angle before, during and after the show.
That’s why PR should be part of fashion show planning from the beginning. The goal isn’t simply to get people to attend. It’s to identify the stories that give editors, writers and other media a reason to cover the brand.
The runway may be the moment.
The stories surrounding it are what can extend its impact.
