NYFW Diversity of the Runway Panel Discussion

Step into the future of fashion with The Culture Code: Diversity on the Runway — a bold and stylish evening presented by Harlem Fashion Week in partnership with Chase.

This immersive Fashion Mixer + Panel Discussion celebrates the creative force of Black resistance, resilience, and innovation through the lens of fashion. As Harlem Fashion Week’s signature Business of Fashion event, the evening convenes designers, artists, and cultural leaders to explore how Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) are redefining the Black fashion narrative.

Set against the backdrop of Harlem — a global epicenter of Black culture and style — this experience is more than a conversation. It’s a movement. From insightful dialogue to industry networking, this event is where culture, commerce, and creativity converge to shape a more inclusive future in fashion.
