“Before Fashion Week, I love spending time at Yoga to the People on St. Marks Place in the East Village. Not only is it a great workout, but the community of people there is so lovely—it’s a really relaxing environment to spend time in before the season gets too full-on.”

“My favorite place to go before show season is Mama Spa on the Lower East Side, which is a quick two-minute walk from my apartment. I love going there for the Swedish and hot stone massages, sauna, and steam facilities. For me, it’s the best way to relax before the chaos of fashion month begins.”

“I work with Traci Copeland all year long, but training with her before and during shows is the best way to prepare for Fashion Week. Recently, we have been training at the Nike Gym, at 45 Grand Street. It’s such a great private space to train, and it feels so personal—they even customized my locker with my name on it.”

“Rob Piela at Gotham Gym in the West Village gives me a really good, strong workout. Boxing makes me feel healthy and more confident with my body. It also gives me more energy, which definitely helps during Fashion Week, and keeps me calm and feeling less stressed.”
