HIGHLIGHTS
We want to make this experience as memorable as possible, integrating lots of learning and education in a fun and interactive way. We also love New York City so we want to show you the best of what we have to offer.
* For the WindowsWear Summer Bash on Wednesday, feel free to dress up as it’ll be a rooftop lounge with wine and appetizers. Nothing too formal, as most people will be coming directly from work, and individuals in the fashion industry also have their own unique sense of style.
* On Thursday and Friday, feel free to wear comfortable clothing as we’ll be doing a lot of activities and walking. We’ll start the mornings with presentations and afternoons with site visits and tours.
* Saturday is more of a relaxing day, and we’ll finish the experience outdoors in Bryant Park.
