Fashion Week Brooklyn, like Brooklyn itself, is an experience of constant reinvention, be a part of the metamorphosis. — BK|SF Founder and Director Rick Davy
Brooklyn is cool and cutting edge, and there is a rich history of grit and determination backed by a proud history of art, entrepreneurship, and innovation. In 2016, then Borough President, now Mayor, Eric Adams officially recognized the BK|Style Foundation for Brooklyn’s premier fashion event and proclaimed BK Style Day (May 6). The bi-annual international collection show is a week-long event that has been etched into the fabric of the local scene.
