Just beyond the flashing cameras at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week, the Cintas' executive design team looked to the runway to identify the newest fashion trends for next year's apparel lines. The eight day event, which is held from September 5-12 at Bryant Park, showcases the spring and summer collections from the fashion industry's top designers such as Michael Kors, Donna Karan and Ralph Lauren.
Joined by a select group of fashion savvy company clients, leading representatives from the Design, Merchandising and Marketing departments at Cintas joined an audience packed with luxury retail buyers, editors, merchandisers, models and other fashion industry emissaries for the event.
Ranked number six in Apparel magazine's “Apparel Top 50” list, Cintas establishes themselves apart from the competition by delivering fashionable alternatives to their clients that mirror current retail trends.
By carefully considering the workplace environment and function of each employee, Cintas' skilled designers transcend designs showcased on the runway to create garments that enhance their clients' brands while making associates feel their best.
Attending New York's Fashion Week gave me the opportunity to see that Cintas' designs are truly fashionable,” said Jorge Trevino, Vice President of Openings and Transitions for Kimpton Hotels and Restaurants.
“As the first and leading collection of boutique hotels throughout the United States and Canada, we want to know that the wardrobe designs developed for our employees have a distinctive style that doesn't emulate traditional uniform styles. Our hotel designs are unique and relevant, so we want our employees' appearance to reflect that.”
