NYC Live! @ Fashion Week Returns Stronger and More Inclusive
Fashion, culture, and creativity united at NYC Live! @ Fashion Week, a global showcase of diversity, elegance, and innovation in New York.
On a radiant Tuesday, September 16th, 2025, under the late-summer New York sun, AlizéLaVie Media, had the privilege of covering the much-awaited return of NYC Live! @ Fashion Week. Far from the impersonal glitz of oversized arenas, this season’s showcase unfolded at Flatiron Studio in Chelsea — a space that crackled with intimacy, elegance, and anticipation.
The venue was alive with warmth. People from every background, color, and origin came together, creating a vibrant mosaic of cultures that perfectly reflected New York’s heartbeat.
More than a fashion show, it became a powerful statement: fashion is at its best when it gathers humanity from the four corners of the world.
Models, Precision, and a Message Beyond Fashion
To begin with, when the lights dimmed, confident models brought each collection to life. They glided across the runway with effortless grace, drawing sighs and applause. From start to finish, the event’s timing and flow were flawless, showing the professionalism of the production team.
Meanwhile, behind the curtains, another story was unfolding. A group of fashion students from FIT managed the backstage with precision and calm. Beyond the glamour, these students carried a message. They led an anti-bullying campaign, bringing attention to a subject rarely discussed in the industry. Through their initiative, they reminded everyone that fashion is not only about beauty, but also about creating safe spaces and empowering others. In the end,this unexpected act of courage gave the evening a deeper meaning.

Afterward, the runway opened to a constellation of international talent. Each designer presented collections blending culture, innovation, and identity:
• Alvertis Alve’ Alexander – Black Pearl, a poetic tribute to feminine grace
• Frederick Ramirez – Rez Couture, fearless menswear reimagined.
• Cynthia Jackson – C Jackson Long Island Custom Apparel, bespoke luxury.
