The Business
Make the most of the week
Once upon a time, fashionistas did their thing, the computer types did theirs, and never the twain shall meet. But in this brave new world, everyone wants a piece of tech, and so even our events calendar cannot escape the clutches of New York Fashion Week. Why not embrace it?
