DESIGNER Nebula NYC · NYFW 3 or 9 September 2026 [in flux] · 5–6 runway slots PDF

NYFW · NEBULA NYC · DESIGNER PARTICIPATION

Your Models Meet Ours

NEXUS is NYFW's first runway show built around designers who used AI in the work — not as a theme, as the tool that made the collection. You get your own runway segment and a custom visual world on every screen.

01

The Concept

One invite-only night where runway, AI visuals, and portrait tech share the same room at Nebula NYC, Times Square.

What Happens

Four parts — one continuous night, not a standard runway rental.

Runway
Live designer segments — each walk captured for press and portfolio
Screens
Custom AI visual pairing on Nebula's LED walls per segment
Portrait Booth
Every guest leaves with a shareable fashion portrait
After-Program
Private room for buyers, press, and partners after the show
