OUR STORY

BORN IN NEW YORK CITY

Runway 7 Fashion was born from a moment of inspiration right here in New York City.

The name was inspired by two iconic street signs in New York's historic Garment District: 7th Avenue and Fashion Avenue — streets that have been part of the fashion industry for generations and have shaped the stories of countless designers, creators, and visionaries.

“Runway 7” represents the energy, confidence, innovation and creativity that we see in fashion. And the number “7” is a tribute to 7th Avenue and the incredible fashion legacy built around it.

MORE THAN AN AWARD

A PLATFORM FOR IMPACT

Together, Runway 7 represents the connection between that rich history and the bold, modern spirit of the designers and creatives shaping the industry today.

From the very beginning, Runway 7 was created with the belief that fashion should be diverse, expressive, and empowering — a space where individuality is celebrated and new opportunities are created for the next generation.

RECOGNIZING THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE WORK

These awards are about recognizing the people behind the work — their creativity, their dedication, their ideas, and the impact they are making across their industries and communities.
