[edit] LA Fashion Week

Anyone looking to open the Los Angeles Fashion Week page should check Mercedes-Benz Fashion week they coordinate both LA and NY now. LaVieEntiere 02:52, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other Fashion Weeks

This section is becoming a listing of large cities, where fashion always plays a role. I propose the following: Unless the city has a "Fashion Week" (and a citation is provided to it) it doesn't belong on the Fashion Week article. Otherwise, we can list all major cities, since major cities tend to be places where fashion is important. But the article is about Fashion Week, and unless a city has one, it doesn't belong. --DavidShankBone 17:44, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

ChrisDVD :

Well i don't understand why Toronto's fashion week is listed, and not Montreal's? Montreal fashion week (semaine de mode de Montreal SMM) is way bigger then TOronto's, and much mor eimportant...i owuld say it could rank in the top 10....many stars dresses in Montreal now, like Fergie for example. so i hope someone can change something....

[edit] notability guidelines

For a fashion week to be included on this page, I propose that at a minimum there should be national coverage of it. Charleston fashion week, for instance is only covered in local papers and is hardly notable as far as fashion weeks go. Its website says they are inviting local retailers to create collections. This seems unworthy of inclusion in a wikipedia article on fashion week, so I am re-removing it. Calliopejen1 15:52, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

• I agree. I also think a fashion week should have existed for a period of time, say three years. It's great there are other fashion weeks that are popping up around the world, but I am more concerned that these are "one-offs" than anything noteable enough for staying power such as Tokyo, London, New York, etc.... --David Shankbone 21:10, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Unless consensus disagrees, I am going to remove all Fashion Weeks that are referenced and/or have not existed for at least three consecutive years to comply with notability guidelines. --David Shankbone 17:32, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spring collection

Even if not so notable, the Filipina Spring collection must be included here, due to the fact that the maker is a tycoon and known worldwide in this line.
