Fashion week schedules remain in turmoil

International fashion weeks are still embroiled in conflict

with dates.

After Milan, London, and New York finally compromised on their respective Fashion Week dates for 2013 and 2014, France's Chambre Syndicale announced that their unhappiness with the proposed arrangement.

Its members voted unanimously to stick to their original dates for 2013 and 2014, rather than making their start-date a week later, as the new schedule dictates.

Chambre Syndicale president Didier Grumbach explained their reasoning: “It was perfectly open and clear and very obvious that our members could not accept this … We fall at the end of the calendar. All of the member houses agreed that this would make them very late in taking orders, which in turn would be penalizing for deliveries."
