The evening is a fantastic time to visit the Empire State Building. You’ll climb over a quarter of a mile high and take in the scale of the landscape open up before them. It’s a great way to see the whole city away from all the hustle and bustle.

Day 2

After a good breakfast, head to the Museum of Modern Art (MoMa) this morning. It’s a great spot for inspiration for students of all ages on a fashion study trip. It’s one of the world’s premier collections of modern and contemporary art.

On the way to your afternoon attraction stop off at the bustling Times Square for a spot of lunch, shopping and take in the atmosphere.

Several blocks down from Times Square and you’ll reach Macy's and we can arrange a Fashion Experience Tour. The 2-hour guided tour is a great introduction and discussion of current brands, designers and trends including wardrobe and styling tips.

In the evening enjoy entertainment at it’s greatest with a Broadway performance. There are shows such as Wicked, Chicago and The Lion King to choose from for your study trip group.

Day 3

Statue of Liberty on a cloudy day in New York

An early start for an early tour of Fashion Institute of Technology known as FIT.  Founded in 1944, it's ranked among the top five fashion schools in the world. Group will see the permanent costume collection at the FIT museum.

Spend this afternoon exploring the modern history of New York City, with the 9/11 Memorial & Statue of Liberty & Ellis Island. They all explore the implications of the events of 9/11, of immigration and the continuing consequences of both.

Tonight is a great night to explore Times Square at night. With the dazzling lights and vibrant atmosphere you can explore this iconic area to soak in the bustling energy.

Day 4

In the past groups have visited Harpers Bazar and Teen Vogue – the exact publication will be confirmed at time of booking.

The latest attraction to open in New York is RiseNY which is part museum, part theme park. It pairs museum-style galleries with an amusement park-quality ride.
