Attention fashion lovers - New York's much-anticipcated Fashion Week kicks off from tomorrow Thursday, February 9th until February 16th. Here are 3 key things to know.

1. The spotlight will be on Calvin Klein Creative Director Raf Simons' as it will be his first Fashion Week

It's been almost six months since the former Dior creative director Raf Simons moved to Calvin Klein. He just unveiled the new campaign which was shot by Willy Vanderperre. We can't wait until Friday's Calvin Klein show!

2. Promising new designers 
While famous brands such as DKNY and Tom Ford won't be taking part, this year's New York fashion week features a lot of promising new brands such as Namilia. They were unveiled at last September's Fashion Week and we are looking forward to seeing what they bring to the table.

3. An exciting front-row
Each year the NYFW front-row features the biggest celebs of the moment alongside fashion icons such as Anna Wintour. This year we can expect to see Stranger Things' Millie Bobby Brown, the new face of Calvin Kelin, possibly on and off the catwalk.
