We’re proud to announce New York Fashion Week: The Forward Edit, curated by our very own style writer, Michelle Honig.
From the days of Joseph and his multicolored coat, Jews have always had a special relationship with clothing.
From design to production to modeling, from the traditional world of modest clothes and head coverings, to Levi’s jeans, Lady Gaga’s shoes and the plethora of Jewish fashion bloggers — you could say couture is in our very DNA.
Stay tuned as we give you the latest on NYFW — the Jew-ish edition.

Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
