For six charged days, the city hums with camera flashes, couture trunks and excited discussions about the latest trends. If you’re planning to sweep in on a private jet to New York Fashion Week, slide into a show seat and still have time for a martini before the afterparty, this guide is your glide path. We’ll show you how to arrive with zero hassle, where to sleep in comfort (and privacy), and how to fill the gaps between runway calls with the kind of experiences people whisper about afterwards.

NYFW 2025: Location, Dates & Tickets

The Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA) has confirmed that New York Fashion Week will run from Thursday 11 September to Tuesday 16 September 2025, presenting the Spring/Summer 2026 collections. The official show list and final schedule will be released closer to the event, but there is already so much to expect from this lavish spectacle.

Rather than one central venue, NYFW now unfolds across Manhattan (and occasionally Brooklyn). Spring Studios has been a frequent base in recent years, but the CFDA doesn’t mandate a single hub; brands pick venues that match their storytelling, like museums, rooftops, or waterfront warehouses.

Access & tickets. Seats on the Official Schedule are invitation‑only. While the public tickets you’ll see online (e.g. via Fashion Week Online or The Bureau) are for independent showcases that run alongside NYFW and not CFDA‑curated runway slots, they’re still jam-packed with fun and legitimately part of the wider “fashion week” experience.

Luxury Hotels for New York Fashion Week

Below are four addresses that balance proximity, privacy and personality. Distances are approximate driving distances from TEB and JFK to give you a sense of transfer time. Rates reflect typical high‑season ranges, so always check live pricing to be sure.

1. Aman New York (Midtown, Fifth Avenue & 57th Street)

Hidden within the historic Crown Building, Aman New York feels like a private members’ house disguised as a hotel. Jean‑Michel Gathy’s all‑suite design wraps fireplaces, Japanese soaking tubs and hushed palettes into Zen-like cocoons, while a three‑storey spa (pool, hammam, banya) becomes your sanctuary between fittings. Downstairs, a subterranean jazz club offers the perfect post‑show decompression: low lights, meticulous cocktails, no phones in sight.

  • Distance: ~22.5 km from Teterboro (TEB) · ~27.5 km from JFK
  • Price per night: roughly €1800– €12,800 (entry suites to signature residences)
  • Standout touches: The members‑only Aman Club, in‑suite dining that behaves like a private kitchen, and chauffeured transfers arranged with zero fuss.

2. The Mark (Upper East Side)

If the Met Gala had a permanent afterparty address, it would be The Mark. Jacques Grange dresses the interiors in bold stripes and high-gloss whimsy, while Jean‑Georges Vongerichten keeps diners anchored with polished comfort food (and Caviar Kaspia next door for late-night indulgence). Rooms are surprisingly generous by Manhattan standards, and service is deft: on‑call hairstylists, personal shoppers, even a custom sailboat for escapist Hudson cruises.

  • Distance: ~24 km from TEB · ~29 km from JFK
  • Price per night: around €970–€1,750 in peak periods
  • Standout touches: The city’s priciest penthouse, a fleet of custom bicycles for Central Park dashes, and that monochrome lobby floor, Instagram cannot resist.

3. The St. Regis New York (Midtown, 55th & Fifth)

Opened in 1904 and still a benchmark for old‑world glamour, The St. Regis pairs silk‑lined heritage with quiet modern tech. The brand’s signature Butler Service means you can press a button and summon anything from a perfectly pressed gown to a midnight snack. You’re steps from MoMA, Central Park and Fifth Avenue’s flagships, and the King Cole Bar’s mural-lined walls still see more than their fair share of whispered deals.

  • Distance: ~13 km from TEB · ~21 km from JFK
  • Price per night: from roughly €1,150, with suites climbing well above that
  • Standout touches: Daily champagne sabrage if you’re in the mood, a rooftop ballroom for private gatherings, and butlers who remember how you take your coffee.

4. Baccarat Hotel New York (Midtown, 53rd & Fifth)

Stepping into Baccarat is like stepping inside a crystal; everything gleams. Pleated silk walls, sculptural chandeliers and crimson banquettes set the tone, while the Grand Salon’s afternoon tea becomes a fashion-week reset ritual. A serene, low-lit pool and a La Mer–powered spa handle the jet‑lag recovery. It’s intimate, theatrical and just a whisker away from Midtown’s key venues.

  • Distance: ~13 km from TEB · ~21 km from JFK
  • Price per night: from about €900
  • Standout touches: Forbes Five‑Star credentials, a bar made for editorial shoots, and a location that makes scooting to Spring Studios or MoMA painless.

New York Fashion Week Hot Spots

When the lights go down on the runway, the real networking and mingling starts over late dinners, discreet nightcaps and members‑only dance floors. These are the rooms that understand the fashion ethos, perfect lighting and impeccable timing.

Restaurants

  • Indochine (NoHo): Fashion’s perennial canteen since 1984. Reserve a corner banquette, order the crispy spring rolls and watch half the front row glide past after 10 pm.
  • Le Coucou (SoHo): Daniel Rose’s Michelin‑starred ode to classic French cooking, white tablecloths, low candlelight and a dining room that hums with editors sealing features over quenelles.
  • Carbone (Greenwich Village): Still a power table if you can snag one. The spicy rigatoni is practically a status symbol, and the back booths offer space for quiet conversations.

Bars & Nightclubs

  • Boom Boom Room (The Standard High Line): Golden ceilings, floor‑to‑ceiling views and a DJ line‑up that flips from disco to deep house after midnight. Many brands quietly take it over for unforgettable afterparties.
  • Bemelmans Bar (The Carlyle): Leather banquettes, live jazz and martinis under Ludwig Bemelmans’ murals, a timeless reset when you need to decompress without leaving the Upper East Side.
  • The Nines (NoHo): Velvet, piano, impeccable service. Slip in for a nightcap and stay for the impromptu sing‑along when the pianist warms up.

Members’ Clubs & Other Hot Spots

  • Casa Cipriani (Seaport): Members‑only polish, river views and a “Living Room” that’s hosted more label dinners than most restaurants in town.
  • Spring Place: A hybrid coworking/social club at the heart of Tribeca where showrooms, panels and post‑show drinks collide, handy if your day is centred around Spring Studios.
  • The Blond (11 Howard): Low‑lit, gold‑hued and celebrity‑sprinkled; slide past the velvet rope with a name on the list and discreet service at hand.

Things to Do During New York Fashion Week

You already know the Met and the Empire State Building. Here’s what people in the know actually do between call times and fittings.

  • Private gallery previews in Tribeca/Chelsea. Many dealers will open early, or late, if you ask nicely. Pair PPOW, David Zwirner or Pace with a quick prosecco and you’re back in the car in 20 minutes.
  • Archive appointments & after‑hours shopping. Fifth Avenue flagships (Dior, Prada, Bergdorf Goodman) quietly arrange private fittings and archive peeks for VIP clients. Book via your stylist or concierge.
  • Back‑room jazz. Aman’s subterranean club is an invitation‑only ambience; Blue Note’s post‑midnight set keeps the tourists out and the musicians loose.
  • Wellness with edge. Two hours at Shibui Spa (The Greenwich) or a La Mer facial at Baccarat’s spa can undo a red‑eye. For something punchier, try a guided breathwork or IV therapy session arranged in‑suite.
