New York fashion chief quits after physical clash with Peta activists goes viral

Steven Kolb, the long-time chief executive of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), has announced his resignation. The departure follows a viral incident at a New York runway show where Kolb was filmed physically restraining two PETA protesters who had disrupted the event.

While Kolb expressed pride in his tenure at the organization, his exit comes only days after the altercation gained significant public attention. The CFDA has not provided further details regarding the immediate impact of the incident on his decision to step down.
