The Council of Fashion Designers of America officially launched its Spring/Summer 2027 schedule today, September 10, featuring 70 runway shows and presentations running through September 15.
Designers including Sergio Hudson, Diotima by Rachel Scott, and Public School New York headline the CFDA calendar, emphasizing visibility and opportunity for Black talent in the industry.
Luxury designer Hudson is spotlighting Black-owned beauty brand Camille Rose during his Spring/Summer 2027 show, building on his February 2026 collaboration with jewelry designer Simone I. Smith on a 28-piece collection.
Designer Nia Thomas is opening her Spring/Summer 2027 showroom to the public for two days at The Standard, East Village, allowing fashion lovers to shop without runway invitations.
