High fashion is truly dead.

Designer Alexander Wang just joined Tommy Hilfiger, Proenza Schouler, Rodarte, Altuzarra, and Thom Browne in dropping out of February’s New York Fashion Week — whose biggest star, Tom Ford, has openly acknowledged his profession’s irrelevance.
“Most of the American population is switched off fashion,” Ford told The Hollywood Reporter in 2016. “[It’s] become a spectator sport for the most part.” (Ford has largely pivoted to a successful career writing and directing films.)
