Here is what Menka has to say: "Although 2020’s fashion week was held entirely online, this season promises to provide a unique experience, as we see a return to physical catwalk shows. As we are slowly opening and getting back to normal, there are still few who prefer online and digital experience. So along with physical catwalk, many brands will be allowed a purely digital presentation meaning you can have front row access to North America fashion week from the comfort of your own home. We are now accepting applications from designers to participate either in person or virtual. Please register at www.northamericafashionweek.com or email at info@northamericafashionweek. com.”
