Over the past decade, NYC's fashion industry has shown increasing signs of vulnerability: 30% fewer graduates of fashion degree and certificate programs, 50,000 fewer jobs, and a 13.6% decline in fashion’s contribution to gross city product (GCP). What's contributing to this trend and what will it take to become competitive again on the global stage? Our latest report, "At a Crossroads: New York City's Status as a Global Fashion Capital," draws on analysis from McKinsey & Company, to examine local and global shifts impacting NYC's fashion industry and provides a roadmap for leveraging the city's strengths to regain our position as a global fashion leader.
