Sherri Hill made its New York Fashion Week debut in 2011 and has shown every September since, apart from 2020. The brand also presented February shows from 2015 through 2019. Each show previews the collections that define the year ahead, and the dresses do not stay on the runway: many of the styles shown in New York become the prom dresses, pageant gowns and red carpet looks of the seasons that follow.
The runway has served as an early stage for models who went on to become household names. Kendall Jenner and Hailey Baldwin (now Hailey Bieber) both walked their first New York Fashion Week shows for Sherri Hill, and Grace Elizabeth and Delilah Belle Hamlin made early runway appearances with the label.
