Today, more than ever, the culinary scene in this buzzing, sprawling, restaurant-mad metropolis defies pigeonholing and easy categorization. In the city’s fractious, ever-changing Italian-food circles, fancy, big-ticket dinners used to be in fashion, but now neighborly, old-fashioned home cooking is the thing.

Bloomberg recently laid out six new initiatives to aid New York City’s emerging fashion designers. The initiatives were developed as a result of FashionNYC2020, a yearlong study that addressed the challenges facing New York’s fashion industry and proposed ways to strengthen the city’s status as a global fashion enclave.
