As Fashion Week continues its takeover across the Atlantic, we at HFR are still buzzing from the incredible experiences and accomplishments that occurred during S/S '14 NYFW. This year was all about fashioning the change for an equal mainstream platform for designers of color. We are dedicated to the future of fashion and excited to see the progression of these extraordinary designers. Here's the rundown of our events from this season:
