Fashion designer Georgina Chapman has cancelled her label Marchesa's New York Fashion Week (NYFW) runway show amid Harvey Weinstein scandal.
The brand, co-helmed by Weinstein's soon-to-be ex-wife Chapman and Keren Craig, had been slotted for February 14.
Chapman founded the Marchesa fashion line with partner Keren Craig in 2004 and the brand has been a regular at NYFW for a decade, reported Entertainment Tonight.
"Marchesa is looking forward to presenting their Fall 18 collection in an updated format this season," an official spokesperson for Marchesa said in a statement.
According to the New York Post, the high-end label would be putting out a digital presentation instead of the traditional runway show.
The outlet added that the 41-year-old designer "couldn't go through" with the planned show because "she was too scared."
Weinstein, who has been accused of sexual harassment and assault by more than 100 women, and Chapman finalised the terms of their divorce late last year.
Chapman, who announced she was leaving her husband in October shortly after dozens of women began coming forward with allegations, has yet to file papers making the divorce official.
