While some designers decided to scale back and host more intimate presentations, Cowan opted to go big while, of course, still abiding by the <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/cfda-coronavirus-precautions-nyfw-2022\/\">coronavirus regulations<\/a>. The CFDA finalist&#8217;s iconic looks naturally deserve equally as iconic views, which is what landed him staging his runway 102 floors above New York City at the city&#8217;s One World Trade Center.<\/p>\n<p>If the Guinness world records had a section dedicated to the highest runway show in New York Fashion Week history, Cowan sets the record. He takes the title only a season after New York-based designer <a href=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/articles\/nyfw-spring-summer-2022-best-looks-shows-designers\/\">LaQuan Smith<\/a> hosted his runway show on the observatory deck of the Empire State Building. Not only does Cowan set the record for the highest runway show, but he&#8217;s also the first designer given the opportunity to present in the space.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_49981\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-49981\" style=\"width: 683px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-49981 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/02\/GettyImages-1370077762.jpg?w=683\" alt=\"\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-49981\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Christian Cowan A\/W22 show as part of New York Fashion Week at One World Observatory on February 11, 2022 in New York City.

The collection had all notes of the designer&#8217;s quintessential design style but in an array of elevated silhouettes that would be suitable for a night downtown or gala uptown.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_49976\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-49976\" style=\"width: 683px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-49976 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/02\/GettyImages-1370053407.jpg?w=683\" alt=\"\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-49976\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">CHRISTIAN COWAN Fall 22 NYFW show at One World Observatory on February 11, 2022 in New York City.

Once guest made it down to the building&#8217;s lobby there was only one thing left in mind, Cowan&#8217;s afterparty. And every fashion aficionado knows, the only thing better than a Christian Cowan fashion show, is a Christian Cowan party.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_49979\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-49979\" style=\"width: 682px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-49979 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/graziamagazine.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2022\/02\/GettyImages-1370128036.jpg?w=682\" alt=\"\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-49979\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Christian Cowan Ready to Wear Fall\/Winter 2022-2023 fashion show as part of the New York Fashion Week on February 11, 2022 in New York, USA.
