NEW YORK（Reuters）—The Internet and advances in technology are transforming fashion, making it easier for designers to create collections and less expensive for them to show and sell their work, experts say．
Instead of spending tens of thousands of dollars on a runway（T形台）show at New York Fashion Week, some designers presented collections for spring and summer 2010 online, while others are expanding the reach of their brand by making it easier for shoppers to buy their clothes online． 高考网wWw.GaoKw.cOm

Designer Norma Kamali and Polo Ralph Lauren Corp both have applications for Apple Inc's iPhone that allows shoppers to buy clothes from their phone．"This is the technology that's changing our lives," said Kamali, who displayed her spring and summer 2010 collection as well as exclusive lines （专卖品） for eBay Inc and Walmart．com at the Apple store in Manhattan's Soho neighborhood．
Kamali's iPhone application has a "Try Before You Buy" option, which allows clothes to be sent overnight to a customer, who provides her credit card information, so she can try them on at home before deciding to buy．
Menswear designer Miguel Antoinne and womenswear designer Marc Bouwer both put on virtual fashion shows, while models at fashion designer Vivienne Tam's show carried a laptop computer adorned（装饰）with a Tam design．
Mazdack Rassi, co-founder and creative director of Milk Studios, a downtown space that showed about 70 collections during New York Fashion Week, and was considering projecting shows on the side of a building so people at nearby park could watch． 高考网WWw.gAoKw.coM
