COTERIE & MAGIC Return to NYC With Global Brands and FW26-27 Trends

COTERIE and MAGIC by Informa return to New York City from February 24–26, 2026, taking over the Javits Center with a dual showcase of contemporary fashion, emerging designers, global brands, and forward-looking Fall/Winter 2026–2027 trends.

COTERIE New York: Global Fashion, Strategic Collaborations

Produced by Informa, COTERIE remains the East Coast’s premier fashion trade event for women’s contemporary to advanced contemporary apparel, footwear, and accessories. This season delivers an elevated experience through curated activations, global brand representation, and strategic partnerships designed to meet the evolving demands of fashion retail.

COTERIE’s international lineup spans Italy, Korea, Turkey, Brazil, Spain, France, and India, with standout brands including Osklen, Moa Concept, Palas, Flabelus, Saint Ones, Jiji Studios, and Sessùn, offering buyers a diverse perspective on modern design and craftsmanship.

JOOR Partnership and Apres Ski Vintage Expansion

For the first time, COTERIE partners with JOOR to extend the New York event digitally, giving global retailers access to participating brands online beginning two weeks before the show and continuing six weeks after. The collaboration allows buyers to explore collections, connect with exhibitors, and place orders beyond the in-person event.

COTERIE also brings back its Après Ski neighborhood, now expanded to include sustainable, upcycled vintage curated by Normal NYC. Buyers can source vintage fashion from independent vendors, with select brands offering on-site, cash-and-carry DTC access.

“COTERIE has long served as a critical business hub for the fashion industry,” says Purvi Kanji, VP of COTERIE, FASHION by Informa. “Our new partnerships are designed to drive discovery, accelerate transactions, and expand global reach.”
