Several fashion stars walked the runways in Skechers including Real Housewives of New York star Tinsley Mortimer and America’s Next Top Model finalist Khrystyana for Garo Sparo as well as top model Kara Del Toro from Elite Model Management for Revival Swim.
“Last year, we were here with just our Skechers D’Lites collection, and now with so many relevant lines, we’re back at New York Fashion Week with even more styles that pair seamlessly with the beautiful designer swimwear, ready-to-wear, and couture on the runway,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “Watching such an eclectic range of our top collections move down the runway proves that there’s a perfect Skechers style for every look. Influencers and fashion press covering New York Fashion Week discovered that Skechers continues to be on-trend and in-style with our signature comfort that people can’t find anywhere else.”
