Berkeley College kicked off its prestigious Rennert 2025 Summer Plus! Certificate with an immersive fashion and retail history tour in collaboration with WindowsWear, welcoming students from around the world—including Russia, Dubai, Tokyo, Brazil, and Iran—to the heart of New York City. The experience began with a dynamic walking tour exploring iconic retailers such as Bergdorf Goodman, Saks Fifth Avenue, Tiffany & Co., and FAO Schwarz, where students learned about the evolution of fashion merchandising, luxury branding, and the city’s influence on global style. Led by the WindowsWear tour team, the tour brought the rich legacy of NYC’s fashion industry to life, setting the stage for a summer of hands-on learning, creativity, and cultural exchange in one of the world’s top fashion capitals.
