This year, there are plenty of milestones and anniversaries for designers to celebrate—and those special occasions just so happen to coincide with New York Fashion Week’s spring 2027 edition, which runs from September 9 through the 16th. Coach kicked things off with a glittering runway show to fete its 85th anniversary on Wednesday; after creative director Stuart Vevers took a bow, a huge after party unfolded behind him, replete with a light-up dance floor, disco ball, and towers of shrimp cocktail. Carolina Herrera is ringing in 45 years; as is Tibi, who’s toasting to 30; and both Libertine and Rachel Comey have 25 years behind them. Montblanc, for its part, celebrated 100 years of leather goods with a starry event at Crane Club one day before the official beginning of the season. Bulgari, on September 9, hosted a different kind of party—this time, celebrating the newest iteration of the Serpenti Infinito collection. Dua Lipa stopped by, as did Blackpink’s Lisa and Hudson Williams. This is just the beginning of the galas, ragers, and late-night events happening during NYFW, so check back here often for the latest party pics.

That same night, Coach threw a party for hundreds of adoring guests to toast the brand’s 85th year. Storm Reid—who is embarking on a music career and has released two songs, “Clean Sweep” and “Shotty”—posed for a picture with Dame Pat McGrath in the VIP section.
Elle Fanning, who wore a black beret and a leopard-print coat during the Coach runway show, ditched her outerwear for the after party.
Alijah Kai, Chibuikem Uche, and Maleah Joi Moon hit the dance floor for DJ sets by Zack Fox and SG Lewis.
Meanwhile, uptown, Maison Boucheron threw an intimate dinner in Central Park’s Conservatory Garden to both celebrate the launch of its new Lierre de Paris creations, and to support the Conservancy itself. Colman Domingo, Leslie Bibb, and Paul Anthony Kelly, (pictured here) were all in attendance.
Domingo caught up with Lisa Rinna, who managed to elicit more than a few laughs from the Emmy-winning actor.
On September 8, Montblanc lauded a major centennial with a party at Crane Club. Rupert Friend, Paul Anthony Kelly, Alexandra Daddario, and Jamie Campbell Bower, (pictured here) joined Derek Blasberg, Ari Fournier, and more partygoers for the evening.
